Answer:7 sweet

Step-by-step explanation:

june:gavyn:alex=2:2:1

June get 14 sweets

sum of ratio=2+2+1=5

(June ratio)/(total ratio) x (total sweet)=(June sweet)

2/5 x (total sweet)=14

Cross multiplying

2(total sweet)=14x5

2(total sweet) =70

Total sweet=70/2

Total sweet=35

Alex sweet=1/5 x 35

Alex sweet=35/5

Alex sweet=7

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Adjacent

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Adjacent angles places side by side and can also be on the same straight line. Since 5x and x+96 are on the same straight line ans placed side by side, then the angles are adjacent.

The sum of angle on a straight line is 180 degrees, hence;

5x + x+ 96 = 180

6x = 180 - 96

6x = 84

x = 84/6

x =14
