let l = lance, and a = alex.

so: l + a = 70

and l = 4a

Putting the value for l in the first equation:

4a +a = 70

5a = 70

a = 14.

So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.

And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.

Ms. Federman graded 5 papers in 40 minutes. At this rate, how many minutes will it take her to grade 30 papers?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

240 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's 40 minutes for just 5 papers, we need to figure how many minutes it would take to grade just 1. So you have to divide 40 by 5 which is 8. Then 8 time 30 which is 240.
