Answer:
total=45
1/3+2/5=11/15
remaining fraction of houses=1-11/15
=4/15
reamaimg houses=4/15×45=12houses
let l = lance, and a = alex.
so: l + a = 70
and l = 4a
Putting the value for l in the first equation:
4a +a = 70
5a = 70
a = 14.
So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.
And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.
Answer: w = 7, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation: Solve by substitution
W + b = 13
rewrite as b = 13 - w and substitute that value for b in the second equation
6.5w + 2b = 57.5 Then solve for w
6.5w + 2(13-w) = 57.5 . Distribute
6.5w + 26 - 2w = 57.5 . Subtract 26 from both sides. Combine like terms and simplify
6.5w - 2w = 57.5 - 26
4.5w = 31.5 Divide both sides by 4.65
w = 7 . Substitute 7 for w in the first equation and solve for b
7 + b = 13 . Subtract 7 from both sides
b = 6
