Answer:

21 windows

Step-by-step explanation:

collen family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and collen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?

Answer: Let the number of window Collen father would paint be a while that of her mother be b. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father a = 2b

Let the number of windows that would be needed to be painted each by Colleen and her 2 brothers be c because they would paint the equal number of windows.

The total number of windows to be painted = 2b + b + c + c + c = 3b + 3c = 3(b + c).

Collen painted 7 windows as her mother and her own share which is one less than the fathers share. Therefore b + c = 7.

Also the fathers share a = 2b = 7 + 1 = 8 windows. Therefore b = 4 which is the mother share

Therefore the total number of windows = 3(b + c) = 3(7) = 21 windows

3b + 3c =  21

3(4) + 3c = 21

12 + 3c = 21

3c = 21 - 12

3c = 9

c = 3 which is collen and her brothers share

What percent is 608 million of 845 million
wlad13 [49]
Hello,

To find the percentage, simply divide the smaller number to the larger number. In this situation, we divide 608 million by 845 million, which will get you:
0.719526627219. At this point, move the decimal place 2 places to the right to get the percent form of the decimal. Let's also round this decimal up.

After you move the decimal place, it's now 71.9526627219, and if we round it to the nearest 10th, it would be 71.95%.

In conclusion, the percent is 71.95%.

Hope this helps!
