Answer:

The age of each triplet if 6 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the age of first child in triplet  = m years

Since, the children are triplet, so age of 3 children are SAME.

⇒The age of second child in triplet  = m years

and, The age of third child in triplet  = m years

Also, the  age of fourth children = 13 years

So, sum of age of all four children =

Sum of age of all triplets +  Age of fourth child = m + m + m + 13 = 3 m + 13

Given:  The sum of the ages of their children is 31.

⇒  3 m + 13 =  31

or, 3 m =  31 -1 3 = 18

or, m = 18/3  = 6

or, m = 6 years

Hence the age of each triplet if 6 years.

A company is giving gifts to its employees. Employees can choose a gift card, hat, or candy. The table shows the gift chosen by
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

360 Employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of employees who chose gift card / Number of total employees

= 90 / 150

Now, we have to figure out in x / 600 when the x represents the number of employees choosing gift card when there are 600 employees in total.

90 / 150, x / 600

-> cross multiply

54,000 = 150x

Therefore 360 = x.

another way:

(multiply the total number of employees in both ratios) 600 / 150 = 4

Now we multiply 4 by 90 (number of employees choosing gift card)

4*90 = 360
