Answer:

Kathy bought 4 and Bob bought 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

since we already know he bought 3 more than her we can subtract 3 from 15 which is 12, since he bought twice more than her we can divide 12 by 3 which is 4. Multiply by 2 and you get 8, and when you add it to the subtracted 3 you get 11. So she bought 4 and he bought 11

Los dueños de un restaurante cultivan sus propios

hammer [34]

Answer:

Quedan 2.083 m^3 de agua en el reservorio.

Equivalen a 2083 litros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Los dueños del restaurante tienen un reservorio de agua cuyo volumen es de 6.25 m^3.

Si han utilizado 2/3 del reservorio, esto implica que aún quedan en el reservorio una tercera parte del volumen original (1/3).

Entonces, la cantidad de metros cúbicos (m^3) de agua que quedan en el reservorio se puede calcular como:

$V=(1/3)\cdot V_0=(1/3)\cdot6.25\,m^3=2.083\,m^3$

Este valor equivale a un volumen en litros de:

$V=2.083\,m^3\cdot \dfrac{1,000\,l}{1m^3}=2,083\,l$
