The answer to the problem is 17
<span> here
7 7/8
= [ (8*7) + 7 ] / 8
= (56 + 7) / 8
=63 / 8
similarly,
3 1/4
=[ (4*3) + 1] / 4
= (12 + 1) / 4
= 13/4
----------------------------
now put the values
7 7/8 - 3 1/4
= 63/8 - 13/4
here, take LCM of 8 & 4 which is 8.
now,
[ (1*63) - (2 * 13) ] / 8
= (63 - 26) / 8
= 37/8
= 4 5/8........................[ here, divide 37 by 8 which gives reminder as 5 and divisible value as 4 ]</span>
Answer:
option c
Step-by-step explanation:
option c is right..
Answer:
The amount of money in Enid bank account can be written as a linear equation.
Ye = Xe + $4*m
where Ye is the money that Enid has in her account, m is the number of months that have passed since she opened it, and Xe is the initial deposit.
For Jim, the equation is similar:
Yj = Xj + $3*m
where Yj and Xj are similar as above.
Between May 15 and December 31 of the same year, we have 7 months (where i am counting December because the deposit is made in the first day of the month).
Then we have that:
Ye = $72 = Xe + $4*7 = Xe + $28
Xe = $72 - $28 = $44
So in May 15, Enid deposited $44.
For Jim we have:
Yj = $72 = Xj + $3*7 = Xj + $21
Xj = $72 - $21 = $51
So in May 15, Jim deposited $51.
