Answer:
Let F = Fran's income
Let W = Winston's income
Combined income is 80000 ==> F + W = 80000
One quarter of Winston's income is the same as one-sixth of Fran's income ==>
(1/4)*W = (1/6)*F
Multiply the 2nd equation by 12 to clear the fractions
3*W = 2*F
Solve this equation for F
F = (3/2)*W
Substitute this value for F into the 1st equation
(3/2)*W + W = 80000
(5/2)*W = 80000
W = (2/5)*80000 = 32000
So F = 80000 - 32000 = 48000
So Winston earns 32000 and Fran earns 48000
Check: One quarter of Winston's income is 32000/4 = 8000
One sixth of Fran'e income is 48000/6 = 8000

Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
We need 60 dollars, we have 16
60-16 = 44
We need to earn 44 more dollars
At 4 dollars a pound
The money earned = lbs * dollars per pound
44 = lbs *4
Divide each side by 4
44/4 = lbs
11 = lbs
We must sell 11 more lbs
