Answer:

$252

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite a neat question, with no fixed equation. Given that each person gives the other two enough money to double their cash, if Toy had 36 dollars beginning, and 36 at the end - presumably the cash of each person, ( their starting and original ) should be the same as well. Respectively each should be a multiple of 36 dollars.

Jan's " give away " = Ami + 36, Jan - 108, Toy + 72

Toy's " give away " = Ami + 72, Jan + 36, Toy - 108

Therefore, we can conclude that Ami = 144 at the start, presuming he gave away 108 dollars, with a remaining 36. Jan, having 144 dollars ( after having his 72 dollars doubled by Ami ) gives 36 to Ami to double his amount, and 72 to double Toy's doubled amount, remaining with 36 dollars. Now Ami has 72 dollars, Jan has 36, and Toy has 144. Then, Toy double's Ami and Jan's amount, giving away 72 and 36 dollars, remaining with 36 dollars himself. Therefore, Ami has 144 dollars, Jan has 72 dollars, and Toy has 36 dollars both at the beginning and end.

144 + 72 + 36 = 252 dollars ( in total )

Elodia [21]

Answer:

52.5 kg ANS

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of a pile of sand = 90kg

Ratio of weight of sand in three bags = 2:3:7

Let the weight be 2x kg, 3x kg, 7x kg respectively A.T.Q.

= 2x + 3x +7x = 90

= 12x = 90

= X= 90/12

Weight of sand in medium bag =

= 3 × 7.5

Luden [163]
9 x 8 = 72
155 - 72 = 83
83 divided by 6 =13.8

So he has to make at least 14 deliveries in order to reach his goal.
