Answer:

14 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earned by gardener for each day worked = $60

Amount paid by gardener for each day when absent = $15

Total number of days = 20

Let the total number of days when the gardener was working = x

Then he was absent for (20 - x) days.

Total amount earned during this period = $750

Then, \[60x - 15(20-x) = 750\]


=> \[60x + 15x - 300 = 750\]

=> \[75x = 1050\]

=> x = 14

So the gardener worked for 14 days out of 20.

A shopkeeper has corn flour and wheat flour. The ratio of the weight of the corn flour to the weight of the wheat flour is 3 : 5
astraxan [27]

Answer:

35 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can set up a proportion.

Let's name the weight of the wheat flour "x."

3/5=21/x

Cross multiply to solve.

3*x=5*21

3x=105

x=35

The weight of the wheat flour is 35 pounds.
