A pound of oranges cost x dollar => A pound of pears cost x+3 dollar
We have: 8x+4(x+3)=30 => 12x=30-12=18 =>x=1.5
5 pounds of pears cost: 5(x+3)=5(1.5+3)=5*4.5= 22.5 (dollar)
Given that total number of books in the book store = 75972
Given that total number of books in science section =
rd of total books =
= 25324
Then remaining number of books = 75972 - 25324 = 50648
Given that 75% of the remaining books are in business section = 75% of 50648 = 0.75*50648 = 37986
Then number of books in the math section = 50648 - 37986 = 12662
Hence final answer is 12662 books in the math section.
13 is not the same as 1/3! The division symbol is not a symbol used to connect two numbers, it is used to find their quotient. For example, 6/2 would be like saying: You have 6 cookies, and 2 friends. How many cookies does each friend get? The answer is obviously not 62, it is 3! So, the exact quotient is 0.3 repeating. You could memorize this or use the fact that 0.9 repeating is 1.
Answer:
If I could get the values of a, b, and c i'd solve the whole thing.
Step-by-step explanation:
8a + 9b divided by 8a - 9b =
9b + 5c divided by 18b - 10c =
5c + 8a divided by 15c - 24a
