Answer:
<u>The total number of fliers the volunteers gave out is 1,368: 756 in the first neighborhood and 612 in the second.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:
Amount of fliers the volunteers gave for a political campaign = 21/38
Remaining 612 were given out in another neighborhood
2. What is the total number of fliers they gave out?
x = Total of fliers
21x/38 = Fliers given out in the first neighborhood
612 = Fliers given out in the second neighborhood
Let's solve for x, this way:
x - 21x/38 = 612
38x - 21x = 612 * 38 (38 is the Lowest Common Denominator)
17x = 23,256
x = 23,256/17
x = 1,368
<u>The total number of fliers the volunteers gave out is 1,368: 756 in the first neighborhood and 612 in the second.</u>

Answer:
Friday: 300 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Omar's pay on Friday = x
Friday: x
Saturday: 1/4 x was spent.
Sunday: 2/3 *(x - (1/4)x ) = 2/3 * (3/4x) = (2*3/(3*4)x = (6/12)x = 1/2x
Dinner: 15 dollars
Remainder = 20% x = 20/100 x = 0.2x
x - (1/4x + 1/2(x) + 15) = 0.2x Combine like terms on the left
x - (3/4x + 15) = 0.2x Remove the brackets
x - (3/4)x - 15 = 0.2x Combine like terms on the left
(1/4)x - 15 = 0.2x Change 1/4 to a decimal
0.25x - 15 = 0.2x Subtract 0.25x from both sides
0.25x - 0.25x - 15 = 0.2x - 0.25x Combine
- 15 = - 0.05x Divide by - 0.05
-15 /-0.05 = - 0.05 x/ 0.05
300 = x
