Let the age of Vera be 'x' years
So the age of Linda is '2x' years
Now Tanya is 4 less than 4 times Linda
So age of Tanya = 4(2x) -4 = 8x -4 years
So total age of Vera , Linda & Tanya
= x + 2x + 8x - 4
= 11x - 4
But it is 2 less than 9 times Vera's age
11x - 4 = 9x + 2
11x - 9x = 4+2
2x = 6
x = 3
So Vera's age = 3 years
Linda's age = 2(3) = 6 years
Tanya's age = 8x - 4 = 8(3) - 4 = 24-4=20 years
Tanya is 20 years old.
Not 1 or 3
it can't be 4 so it is the second one
Answer: 8/9 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
The word 'of' means 'times' as far as fractions are concerned. In this case, we have 1/3 of 2 1/3.
First, it is a good idea to make 2 1/3 an improper fraction - as 8/3, so now we have:
1/3 of 8/3, but since 'of' means 'times' we have,
1/3 x 8/3 = 8/9
The answer is 8/9 cups.
If you want to solve the equation
for C, you can work like this: subtract P from both sides:
Add C to both sides:
