Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).
Kamil and Sean are in the ratio: 3:5
That means: x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5
x / (x + 56) = 3/5
5*x = 3*(x + 56)
5x = 3*x + 3*56
5x = 3x + 168
5x - 3x = 168
2x = 168
x = 168 / 2
x = 84
Therefore Kamil had, x = 84, and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 = 140
Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
I took this test the other day I put figure 2 and I got it right
X=-5, X=4 hope this helps
Answer: 5 benches and 23 students
Step-by-step explanation:
I will answer in English.
We have E students and B benches.
If we sit 4 students per bench, we have 3 students left.
then:
E = 4*B + 3
And if we sit 5 students per bench, there are two places with no students sited.
E = 5*B - 2
now we can replace the E in the second equation with the right part in the first equation:
4*B + 3 = 5*B - 2
3 + 2 = 5*B - 4*B
5 = B
So we have 5 benches, and:
E = 4*5 + 3 = 23 students.
37.5% = 3/8 as a fraction.
So 180 x 8/3 would get you your answer.
Solution: 480
