Okay so lets call Leah "L" and her cousin "C". We know that L+C=36 ... we also know that Leah is twice her cousins age. Therefore, L=2 times C, or L=2C. This is because Leah's age is equivalent to twice as much as her cousin's.
Now that you know that L=2C, you can plug this back into the equation. This should make it so that's there's only one variable now!
L+C=36
(2C)+C=36 ... here we subbed in L=2C
3C=36 ... we add up the C's
C=12 ... we isolate for C by dividing both sides by 3
So her cousin's age is 12 years old. Leah's age is twice that. Thus, she's 24. If you add the two up: 12+24, you indeed get 36. Hope that helps :))

Answer:
2 7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
So Lets put these into a fraction form
Petra: 5 3/5
Pauline: 3 4/16 -> Can be Simplified = 3 1/4
Take the number of pies Petra Ate and subtract it by the number of pies Pauline ate
Change the numbers to a common factor. (multiply 3/5 by 4 and 1/4 by 5 to have common denominators)
Make These Into a Mixed Fraction
Subtract 112-65
Simplify (divide 47 into 20 how many times to get into a mixed fraction)
I think this is right. Hope This Helps
Answer:30 centimeters in 1 minute
84-6-4=72
48/4=12. 84-12= 72
84 - (48/(8-4)) = 84 - (48/4) -4 = 72
84 - 12 = 72
