5+15=20
20x3=60
I'm probably wrong, but thats how I understood the question.
Given:
The rate of interest on three accounts are 7%, 8%, 9%.
She has twice as much money invested at 8% as she does in 7%.
She has three times as much at 9% as she has at 7%.
Total interest for the year is $150.
To find:
Amount invested on each rate.
Solution:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%. Then,
The amount invested at 8% = 2x
The amount invested at 9% = 3x
Total interest for the year is $150.

Multiply both sides by 100.


Divide both sides by 50.


The amount invested at 7% is
.
The amount invested at 8% is

The amount invested at 9% is

Thus, the stockbroker invested $300 at 7%, $600 at 8%, and $900 at 9%.
A 2:4
B 4:6:12
C 0.6:2.4
Distance from school to shop is 12 km
$7.9 cost of one pack
10 packs cost is $79
She pays $29 + Voucher
From the total $79 we substract the $29 she paid with cash or card.
79-29=50
So the value of the voucher is $50
