If George completed 3/5 of work in 9 days, it means that he needs 3 days to finish 1/5th of the work.

The remaining part is 2/5 because 1-3/5=2/5. 2/5 is also 6/15

From this, how much did George do? in the first 3 days he did 1/5th and then one more day was left, during which he did 1/5/3=1/15th.

So he did in total 1/15+1/5=1/15+3/15=4/15.
this means that Paul did the rest of 6/15, so Paul did 6/15-4/15=2/15.

So we know that he does 2/15 in 4 days, which means that every two days he can do 1/15 of the work

so he would need 15 times 2 days to finish the work - 30 days!

15. A restaurant has one type of milk that has 2% fat and another that has 7% fat. how many quarts of each type does the restaur
krek1111 [17]
<span>B. 16 quarts of the 2% milk and 24 quarts of the 7% milk First, let's create an equation to solve. x = quarts of 2% milk (40-x) = quarts of 7% milk So we have the equation x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5 Now to solve for x x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5 x*2 + 7*40 - 7*x = 40*5 x*2 - 7*x = 40*5 - 7*40 -5*x = - 2*40 x = 2*8 x = 16 So we need 16 quarts of 2% milk and 40-16 = 24 quarts of 7%, which matches option "B".</span>
