so, they already used 4,885.78 this month, but whatever all five family members can use total for a month is 7,250.50, so since they already used 4,885.78, they have left 7,250.50 - 4,885.78 = 2364.72.

Answer:

Given



Solving (a): The cost of the business
First, we solve for the fraction of Musa







So, we have:

Make Total the subject



Solving (b): Partners in ascending order
First, represent the fractions as decimals



From the conversion above, the least is 0.1333 (Yaw), then 0.3111 (Musa), then 0.5556 (Kofi).

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
c=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3c + -15 = 17 + -1c
Reorder the terms:
-15 + 3c = 17 + -1c
Solving
-15 + 3c = 17 + -1c
Solving for variable 'c'.
Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add 'c' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 3c + c = 17 + -1c + c
Combine like terms: 3c + c = 4c
-15 + 4c = 17 + -1c + c
Combine like terms: -1c + c = 0
-15 + 4c = 17 + 0
-15 + 4c = 17
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 4c = 17 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 4c = 17 + 15
4c = 17 + 15
Combine like terms: 17 + 15 = 32
4c = 32
Divide each side by '4'.
c = 8
Simplifying
c = 8
