Fill the 5-liter container, pour water from that into the 3 liter container until that is full, You will now have 2 liters left in the 5 liter container.
Empty the 3-liter container, and then transfer the 2 liters from the 5-liter container into it.
Now fill the 5-liter container again, then pour water carefully from the 5-liter container into the 3-liter container until it is full - exactly one more liter.
The 5-liter container now has 4 liters in it.
1/4 of 2,500 i hope you get it right
8m+27= 2m-3
take 2m and subtract it from 8m, this gives you 6m. now your equation is 6m+27=-3.
subtract 27 from -3, this will make it 6m=-30.
divide 30 by 6. this gives you your answer. m=-5, because -30 divided by 6 equals -5.
now to test it you can plug -5 into the equation in place of M. 8 times -5 equals -40, plus 27 equals -13. 2 times -5 equals -10 plus -3 equals -13.
~Hello There!~
Rearrange for s
After 8 years, the new equation would be:
Cross multiply
Subtract 8
Substitute old equation
Solve to get m as 16.
s = 40.
Their current ages are 16 and 40 and the different is 24 years. Therefore, Caitlin is correct.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
Have A Great Day ^_^
