Let x = big number
Let y = small number
x + y = 66...Equation A
2y = x + 15...Equation B
We have two equations in two unknowns.
x + x + 15 = 66
2x = 66 - 15
2x = 54
x = 54/2
x = 27
Plug x = 27 into EITHER equation above to find y.
I will use Equation A.
x + y = 66
27 + y = 66
y = 66 - 27
y = 39
The two numbers are 27 and 39.
Its 5. Its none of those.
10% of 50.00 = 5.0000
Answer: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation: (1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply
1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin
Look at it this way......each 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the bin......so 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)bins....or
3/10 gallons fills a whole bin...
2nd one, take area of whole 12 x 4=48, if area is equally divided, divide area by 2 or multiply by 1/2
