if the ratio of the ages of kisii and esinam is 3:5 and that of Esinam and Larry is 3:5 and the sum of the ages of all three is

larisa [96]

Answer:

The age difference between the oldest and the youngest is 48.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

The ratio of the ages of Kisii (K) and Esinam (E) is 3:5.

The ratio of the ages of Esinam (E) and Larry (L) is 3:5.

The sum of the ages of all three is 147.

Since the age of Esinam is common in both ratios, we find the lowest common multiple (LCM);

LCM of 3,5 = 15.

Hence, the ratio of the three ages is now;

K:E:L = 9:15:25

Let their ages be denoted by x;

$K:E:L = 9x:15x:25x$

The sum of all three ages is;

9x + 15x + 25x = 147

49x = 147

x = 147/49

x = 3.

To find the age difference between the oldest and the youngest;

The oldest is Esinam = 25x

The youngest is Kisii = 9x

Therefore, 25x - 9x = 16x

Substituting the value of x, we have;

x = 3; 16x = 16(3) = 48.

The age difference between the oldest and the youngest is 48.

As you may know, people’s physical and emotional health interact: One can affect the other. The characters in "In Another Countr

Margaret [11]

Answer:

To preserve their mental health, the characters must keep in mind that all suffering is temporary and although it is difficult, they will overcome this situation. What can help characters deal with their situations is by reasoning about the following questions:

"What led me to this situation?"

"What are my limitations in dealing with this type of problem?"

"How could I have acted to minimize the impacts of suffering?"

"Would any action by me prevent these disorders?"

Explanation:

Every time that the characters evaluate themselves and correct their behaviors, they will be able to follow the emotional evolution that will help them to deal with all their suffering. In this journey, each one has a different rhythm. In fact, we are different in almost every aspect of our physical and mental makeup. The variations in intelligence are enormous and also those related to aggressiveness, intensity of fears and the ability to deal with them. It would not be fair, therefore, to tell a character (or a person) that he is suffering from "nonsense". What is small for one may be large for the other. Underestimating the pain of others is not synonymous with help, but a lack of empathy.

We do have a duty and obligation, in the name of our own well-being, to try to get rid of our pains as quickly as possible, but that does not mean not feeling them. Some people do it more easily, while others "fall in love" with the problem and think about it in a recurrent and obsessive way. They silence the word, but the mind goes on chattering.
