Answer: 5 branches and 16 birds.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of birds is B, and the number of branches is N.

First we have the equation:

B = 3*N + 1

(3 birds per branch + 1 that was flying around)

for the second equation we have:

B = 4*(N - 1)

(4 birds per branch, but one branch had no birds on it, so there are N -1 branches used)

now we can write:

3*N + 1 = 4*(N - 1)

3*N + 1 = 4*N - 4

4 + 1 = 4*N - 3*N

5 = N

So we had 5 branches, now we can replace it in one of the equations and find the number of birds.

B = 3*N + 1 = 3*5 + 1 = 16

A certain amount of money is divided among Rio, Kim and Leo in the ratio 5:7:3. If Leo gets Php 24,000.00, how much is the total
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

120,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Rio gets 5x, Kim gets 7x, and Leo gets 3x. In the ratio 5:7:3:1, x = 1

5x + 7x + 3x = total = 15x

3x = 24000

divide both sides by 3 to get x

x = 8000

15x = 8000*15 = 120000

                  Hello!

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

❖ There will be 16 girls.

The relationship is x4. If we multiply 3 x 4, we get 12. What we do to one number we do to the other so 4 x 4 = 16.
