Let's assume

Amy has x peaches

John has y peaches

Amy and John shared 150 peaches

so, we get

x+y=150

now, we can solve for y

y=150-x

we are given

(1/3) of what Amy has equals to (1/2) of what John has

\frac{1}{3} x=\frac{1}{2}y

now, we can plug y

\frac{1}{3} x=\frac{1}{2}(150-x)

we can cross multiply

and we get

2x=3(150-x)

2x=450-3x

5x=450

x=90

now, we can find y

y=150-90

y=60

so,

Amy has 90 peaches

John has 60 peaches..........Answer

juin [17]
Summary of problem.
annual production = 60000 units
work hours per worker = 200*12=2400 hours
productivity = 0.15 unit / person-hour
Need to calculate the number of workers/persons employed.
 
Each unit requires 1 unit / 0.15 unit/person-hour
= 1/0.15 person-hours / unit

60000 unit requires 60000 units * 1/0.15  person-hours/unit
= 400000 person-hours

400000 person-hours requires 400000 person-hours /2400 hours = 166.7 persons 
=>
The plant has 167 labourers  (assuming perfect attendance).
