Answer:
1 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
12/10=1.2 or 1 1/5
width= 8
Length= 15
(8x15= 120 and 8 is 7 less than 15)
1. bobby would be 21 and chris 18.
First, let x or any variable represent the number of paintings Kate initially has. After selling 12 of it, her paintings now becomes only x - 12. Then, she purchased 7 more making the number of her paintings become x - 12 + 7 = x - 5. This number tantamount to 21.
x - 5 = 21 ; x = 26
Thus, Kate initially had 26 paintings.
