Answer: 60 books

Step-by-step explanation:

One customer buys 1/4 of a book vendor's books , another buys 1/3 of his books ,and the third person buys 1/6 of his books.

The lowest common multiple of 4, 3 and 6 is 12

1/4 × 12 = 3

1/3 × 12 = 4

1/6 × 12 = 2

We add all together= 3+4+2= 9

So we've gotten our numerators as 9 and denominator as 12 which is 9/12 = 3/4

Since the total books bought is 3/4. The fraction of books left will be

1-3/4 = 1/4

The book vendor has 15 books left. So we divide 15 by 1/4.

= 15 ÷ 1/4

= 15 × 4

= 60

For the first question, simply make a right angle triangle with the following dimensions.

The angle of elevation or the angle from the ground between the first floor and ground is 60 degrees.

The height between the 2 floors is 26 feet.

Solve for the hypotenuse, or the diagonal length between the first and second floors.

Then for the second question, divide the length in feet by the rate to find the time it takes for the object to move.

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

$2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken intends to start a savings account

10% = leisure spending

This means 90% = Expenses for school

Let us represent the amount he must save as : x

Hence in other for him to have $2,160 in his savings account, the amount Ken must earn is calculated as:

90/100 × x = $2,160

Cross Multiply

90x = $2,160 × 100

x = ($2,160 × 100) ÷ 90

x =$2,400

Therefore, the amount Ken has to earn to have the amount needed for school is $2,400
