Ernie went to the store and bought 33 apples. He bought three times as many red apples as he bought green, and he bought one-hal
f as many yellow as he did red. How many of each type of apple did he buy?
1 answer:
(r is red, g is green and y is yellow)
r+g+y=33
r=3g
2y=r
substitution:
y=33-g-r
y=33-(1/3)2y+2y
y=33-8/3y
11/3y=33
y=33÷(11/3)
y=9
Solve for red and green:
r=2y
r=2×9
r=18
3g=r
3g=18
g=18/3
g=6
double check:
6+18+9=33
answer:
6 green apples, 9 yellow apples and 18 red apples.

Answer:
10/21
Step-by-step explanation:
First you reduce 3000/6300 to 30/60 and then reduce it to 10/21
Circumference of a circle
C = 2 * pi * r
r would be 5.5
Thus
C = 34.56
