Tommy sold $1800. (a) What fraction of the total sales did each salesperson sell? (b) A $100 bonus was awarded to the three salespeople, which they had to share. It was awarded so that each salesperson received the same fraction of $100 as he or she sold of the total sales. How much did each person receive? Round to the nearest whole cent.

A.) First, you find the total sales. $2030 + $1540 + $1800 = $5370. Then, divide each with the total. The answer would be:

Lola: 203/537
Ahmed: 154/537
Tommy: 60/179

b.) Divide 100 by 3 for equal shares. Each person receives $33.3.

Answer: a) Fraction of the total sales did each salesperson sell:-

\text{Lola}=\frac{203}{537}

\text{Ahmed}=\frac{154}{537}

\text{Tommy}=\frac{180}{537}

b) Each person receive=$33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The three salespeople for a local advertising firm are Lola, Ahmed, and Tommy.

Sales by Lola= $2030

Sales by Ahmed=$1540

Sales by Tommy=$1800

Thus, the total sales= $2030+$1540+$1800=$5370

Fraction of the total sales did each salesperson sell:-

\text{Lola}=\frac{\text{Sales by Lola}}{\text{total sales}}=\frac{2030}{5370}=\frac{203}{537}

\text{Ahmed}=\frac{\text{Sales by Ahmed}}{\text{total sales}}=\frac{1540}{5370}=\frac{154}{537}

\text{Tommy}=\frac{\text{Sales by Tommy}}{\text{total sales}}=\frac{1800}{5370}=\frac{180}{537}

If $100 bonus was awarded to the three salespeople, then

Each person receive=\frac{\$100}{3}=33.33\approx\$33

A bouncing ball reaches a height of 54 inches at its first peak, 36 inches at its second peak, and 24 inches at its third peak.

54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term. 
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
