Answer:

Ratio of sweaters to dresses = 8 : 5

Sum of ratios = 13

Let number of sweater + dresses = x

number \ of \ sweaters = \frac{8}{13} *x\\\\24 = \frac{8}{13}*x\\\\x = \frac{24*13}{8} = 3*13 = 39

number \ of \ dresses = 39 - 24 = 15

The sum of the ages of Kristen and Ben is 32. Four years ago Kristen was twice as old as Ben. How old are they both now?
Elan Coil [88]

Let us say that:

K = age of Kristen

B = age of Ben

 

From the problem, we make the equations:

eqtn 1: K + B = 32

eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)

 

Simplifying eqtn 2:

K – 4 = 2 B – 8

K = 2 B – 4

 

Plugging in this to eqtn 2:

(2 B – 4) + B = 32

3 B – 4 = 32

3 B = 36

B = 12

 

From eqtn 2:

K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20

 

So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.

Plugging these values into the equation, the value of the volume is thus 12 * 3 = 36 cubic centimeters
