Answer:

36 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = Elga's age

Alvin's age = x + 7

Sum of their ages = 79

Sum of their ages = Alvin's age + Elga's age

79 = (x + 7) + x

79 = x + 7 + x

79 = 2x + 7

79 - 7 = 2x

72 = 2x

x = 72/2

x = 36

Elga's age = x = 36 years

Alvin's age = x + 7

= 36 + 7

= 43 years

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Fox loves to eat cereal and she notices that she only has 1/3 of the box of cereal left. If she spread that amount across 5 days, how much cereal will she have for each day?

The amount of cereal she would have per day is calculated as:

5 days = 1/3 of the box

1 day = x

Cross Multiply

5 days × x = 1 day × 1/3 of the box

x = 1/3 ÷ 5

x = 1/3 × 1/5

x = 1/15 of the box
