To find the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away, you need to know how much she gave the son.  Because the ratio of the money given is 5:6, the amount of money he received has to be 5/6 of the money the daughter received.

So, the son received 5/6 of 2400.
To find this, multiply 5/6 x 2400 to get 2000.

The daughter received 2400 and the son received 2000, so the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away is 4400 dollars.

Convert .185 to a fraction
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Look to the last number in the decimal; the 5 is in the thousandths place.  This means we put the given decimal number 185 over 1000. 

Example: If you were given 0.52, it would be converted to 52/100 (the last digit is in the hundredths place so the decimal numbers 52 are placed over 100) and then simplified.


0.185 = 185/1000

= 185/1000
simplify by 5

= 37/200


ANSWER: 37/200 is the fraction conversion of 0.185

Hope this helps!  :)

Y = x2 − 2x − 19
xenn [34]
Y = 5 - 4x

5 - 4x = x^2 - 2x - 19
0 = x^2 + 2x -24
0 = (x + 6)(x - 4)
Therefore x = -6 (Given) or 4

x = 4, y = -9
(4,-9) is the other solution
