Answer:

22.5 pounds of mashed potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

I start by dividing 15 by 10 to see how many pounds of mashed potatoes come from a single potato and get 1.5. I then multiply 1.5 times 15 (our number of potatoes) which gives me the answer of 22.5.

Reuben​ says, "two days ago i was 20 years old. later next​ year, i will be 23 years​ old." how is this​ possible?
Aneli [31]
Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.

x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.

Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.

x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22


Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.

Liam, Sarah and Emily shared some money in the ratio 2:3:5. Liam got £30 less than Sarah.
blondinia [14]

The number representing Liam's share is 2; for Sarah's share, it is 3. The difference of those is 1, so each 1 unit of share must be £30, the difference between the amount Sarah got and the amount Liam got.

Emily got 5 shares or £30 × 5 = £150.
