Answer:

a) 8

b) 2 1/4 hours

c) 4 7/8 hours

d) 4 1/8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a) LCD to be used to solve this problem is calculated as the Lowest common denominator of the above mixed fractions.

We have 1 1/2 hours and 1 1/8 hours

The lowest common denominator is the denominator calculated by

Multiplying the two denominators together and dividing by the common factor of the two denominators

Hence , we have

2 × 8 = 16

The common factor of 2 and 8 = 2

LCD = 16/2 = 8

b) How long did Matt drive?

We are told that Matt drove twice as long as John

John drove for 1 1/8 hours

Hence, the number of hours that Matt drove for =2 × 1 1/8

= 2 × 9/8 = 9/4 hours = 2 1/4 hours

c) How long the Sam, John and Matt drive ?

We are told in the question that

Sam drove for 1 1/2 hours

John drove for 1 1/8 hours

Matt drove for 2 1/4 hours

We would sum up the number of hours that each of them drove.

1 1/2 + 1 1/8 + 2 1/4

The Lowest common multiple of denominators is 8

= (1 + 1 + 2)( 4 + 1 +2/8)

= 4(7/8)

= 4 7/8 hours

d) How many hours is left for Bob to drive

We are told that the entire journey = 9 hours

The number of hours Sam, John and Matt drove for has been calculated in question c as 4 7/8 hours

The number of hours Bob will drive for is calculated as

9 hours - 4 7/8 hours

= 4 1/8 hours

Two years ago, Rita was three times older than Cheryl. In 3 years, Rita will be twice older than Cheryl. How old are the girls n
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Cheryl's age = x = 7 years

Rita's age = y = 17 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cheryl's age = x

Rita's age = y

Two years ago, Rita was three times older than Cheryl

(y - 2) = 3(x - 2)

y - 2 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 6 + 2

= 3x - 4

y = 3x - 4

In 3 years, Rita will be twice older than Cheryl

(y + 3) = 2(x + 3)

y + 3 = 2x + 6

y = 2x + 6 - 3

= 2x + 3

y = 2x + 3

Equate both equations

3x - 4 = 2x + 3

Collect like terms

3x - 2x = 3 + 4

x = 7 years

Substitute x = 7 into

y = 2x + 3

= 2(7) + 3

= 14 + 3

= 17

y = 17 years

Cheryl's age = x = 7 years

Rita's age = y = 17 years
