Answer: 1/24
Step-by-step explanation: if you take 8 and change it to 1/8, you can multiply it by 1/3 and 1x1 is 1 and 8x3 is 24 so it’s 1 over 24 or 1/24
C= Colorado B= Boston
C + B = 464
C = 1.2B
Substitute the known value of C from the second equation into the first
C + B = 464
(1.2B) + B = 464
2.2B = 464
Divide each side by 2.2
B = 210.9, rounded to 211 (it's asking for days, not partial days, so round)
If Boston has 211 days of sunshine , then Colorado Springs has 1.2 times that amount. 211 * 1.2 = 253.2 (rounded to 253)
Verification
211 + 253 = 464
Answer:
Equation 1: m+j=25
Equation 2: j=m+5
