I believe that, if there are three brothers and each invested the same exact money to make a total of $33.00, each brother would have invested $11.
Jonathan's was different, as he invested 2/5. 11 divided by 2 is 5.5, in which 5.5*11 would equal 27.50.
The rest was simply their denominator times $11.
Jared had $33 dollars before the investment, and Justin has $44.
Answer:
A. 4,680
Step-by-step explanation:
312*15=4,680
For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.
