0.6*10m=6m 0.6*5n=3n rewrite 6m-3n
hope this helps have a nice nite
3,000. You take 15,000 and multiply by .4 to get how much she spent on rent (6,000). They you subtract the rent money from her total pay to get her money that she spent on living expenses, clothes and entertainment in total (9,000). Since she spent her money in six parts (3+2+1), you divide 9,000 by 6 to get 1,500 to get each part. Since for entertainment she has two parts you multiply 1,500 by 2 to get 3,000.
They are simple linear equations with one unknown, lets tackle them, one step at the time solving for the unknown:
4x - 2(x - 5) = x + 13
4x - 2x + 10 = x + 13
2x + 10 = x + 13
2x - x = 13 - 10
x = 3
that is the solution.
3(6 - x) - 4 = 5x + 2(7x + 3)
18 - 3x - 4 = 5x + 14x + 6
14 - 3x = 19x + 6
14 - 6 = 19x + 3x
8 = 22x
x = 8/22 = 4/11
