First, we need to add 2/6 and 2/5.
2/6 can be simplified to 1/3
We need to have 1/3 and 2/5 have the same denominator. 3 and 5's LCM (least common multiply) is 15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5. This equals 5/15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/5 by 3. This equals 6/15.
5/15 plus 6/15 is 11/15. This means that Jack's 6000 dollars is 4/15.
Let's say that x is the total amount invested by all three.
6000/x would equal 4/15.
Solve this by multiply 6000 by 15 and 4 by x and making these two equal each other.
90000 would equal 4x. Divide both sides by 4 to get x.
90000 divided by 4 would be 22500.
4/15 is the fraction by Jack
22500 is the total amount invested by all 3

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helped :}
The lengths of the first, second and third piece are respectively 8 ft, 16 ft and 32 ft
<h3>How to solve Algebra word Problems?</h3>
Let the length of the first piece be x.
Let the length of the second piece be 2x
Let the length of the thrid piece be 4x
Since the total length of the piece is 56 ft, then we can say that;
x + 2x + 4x = 56
7x = 56
x = 56/7
x = 8 ft
Thus, length of first piece = 8 ft
Length of second piece = 2 * 8 = 16 ft
Length of third piece = 4 * 8 = 32 ft
Thus, the lengths of the first, second and third piece are respectively 8 ft, 16 ft and 32 ft
