Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one
1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x
1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x
To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:
6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x
1/6 = x
The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
The answer is
-2(u+3)-5u
-2u-6-5u
-3u-6
The answer would be 108. 108:45 can be simplified to 12:5.
<span>6840 customers ... 45 days<span>
x customers = ? ... 1 day
If you
would like to know how many customers were in Jasigreen's class in 1 day,
you can calculate this using the following steps:
6840 * 1 = 45 * x
6840 = 45
* x /45
x = 6840 / 45
x = 152 customers
<span>The
correct result would be </span>152 customers<span>.</span></span></span>
