Answer:
$4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let amount from Maria be x
Maggie receives 1/5 x hence remainder is x-1/5 x=4/5x
Journi receives 3/8 of 4/5x=3/8 *4/5x=3/10x
Total by Maggie and Journi is 1/5x +3/10x=1/2x
Remainder is x-1/2x=1/2x
If Terrence receives the rest which is 1/2x to represent $10 then x=$10*2=$20
Amount Maggie receives is 1/5*$20=$4
Answer:
2.9 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we multiply the length, 3.8, by the width, 1.5, to get the base, 5.7 (this step is not entirely necessary, but makes it much easier). Then we divide the volume, 16.53, by the base, 5.7, to get the height, 2.9 meters.
The answer to the problem is 1
Answer:
Janet has coins worth 252.5, 101, and 50.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us call the three coins
, and
.
The first coin
is 5 times another coin<em> (let's say </em>
); therefore,
,
and the third coin is 2 times the value of another coin<em> (it's coin </em>
<em>):</em>
<em />
<em>.</em>
The total worth of all coins is 404; therefore,

or



with the value of
in hand, we find
and
:


and for 


Thus, Janet has 3 coins worth 252.5, 101, and 50.5.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Express the ratio in fractional form
=
( cross- multiply )
6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 2
