So you add 13+5=18
Then you do 144/18=8
8x13=104 8x5=40
104+40=144✅
Answer= 104 : 40
Let's begin by calling Sarah's age now as X. As Ralph is 3 times as old as Sarah, X times 3 = 3X. Hence, Ralph's age is 3X. In six years, Ralph will be twice as old as Sarah. To calculate six years from now, add 6 to X for Sarah, and 6 to 3X for Ralph. As Ralph is twice as old as Sarah and we want to find the difference between the ages to calculate X, multiply X+6 by 2. You'll get 2X+12. Therefore, 2X+12=3X+6. Deduct 6 from 3X+6 as we want to isolate the variable. Because you did that to one side, you have to deduct 6 from 2X+12. Hence, now you have 2X+6=3X. X=6. Ralph's age is 3X, so 6 times 3 is 18. Ralph is 18 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:
80/120 = 66.67
Answer: 1,393 meters tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 1710 meters for the initial amount, 0.05 for the rate of decrease, and 4 millennia for the time elapsed.
y
= a(1–r)t
y
= 1,710(1–0.05)4 Plug in values
y
= 1,710(0.95)4 Subtract
y
= 1,710(0.81450…) Simplify
y
= 1,392.80568… Multiply
Round to the nearest whole number.
1,392.80568… → 1,393
To the nearest whole number, the mountain will be 1,393 meters tall.
Convert the denominator of the first two fractions to 24 since 3 and 8 can fit into 24.
3/8=9/24
2/3=16/24
Now add them together.
9/24+16/24=25/24
Next add the second two fractions 9/24 and 16/24.
9/24+16/24=25/24
Since all fractions equal 25/24, the equation was true!
Hope this helps!
