Seven groups with 8 people in each group
Let's call the three numbers x, y, and z.
The numbers are 3, 12, and 5.
x + y + z = 20
y = 4x
x + z = 8
We can rewrite the first equation because y is 4x, so
x + 4x + z = 20
5x + z = 20
And now we can use simultaneous equation rules to solve
5x + z = 20
x + z = 8
5x + z = 20
5x + 5z = 40
(subtract)
-4z + -20
÷ -4
z = 5
x + z = 8
x + 5 = 8
x = 3
y = 4x
y = 4 × 3
y = 12
I hope this helps!
I think it would be a also but im not good at math
4 pages Elena = 5 pages Jada
To figure out how many pages Jada reads if Elena reads 1, divide 5 by 4: 1.25. This means that for every 1 page Elena reads, Jada reads 1.25 pages.
So if Elena reads 9 pages, multiply 1.25 by 9: 11.25 pages that Jada reads.
For S pages read by Elena, this is a variable, so I’m assuming it means for every S pages, Jada reads 1.25S
Answer:
I believe the answer is 39.368, if we round that it makes it, 39.4
