#1: 214 tickets split 9 ways does not work out to an integer number. Nobody wants 2/3 of a ticket, right?
So the trick here is to determine the first multiple of 9 greater than 214.
Note that 214/9 = 23.8. No good. Not an integer.
Multiply 23 by 9; we get 207. Multiply 24 by 9; we get 216.
So, given that we have 214 tickets already, we need 2 more, to make 216.
Check: Is 216 divisible by 9 without a remainder? Yes. Then each of the 9 students will get 24 tickets.
The rest of the problems are somewhat similar to this one.
See whether you can do the next one, #2.
If you'd share your results, I'd be happy to comment on what you've done.
Answer: $3510
Step-by-step explanation:
Fro th question, Alice, Bryan and Cindy share the cost of renting an apartment in the ratio 3:6:4 respectively and we.are informed that Alice pays $810 monthly.
Alice ratio = 3
Bryan's ratio = 6
Cindy's ratio = 4
Total ratio = 3+6+4 = 13
Since Alice has a ratio of 3, this means that Alice pays 3/13 of the total monthly rent. Let the total rent be x. Therefore,
3/13 of x = 810
3/13 × x = 810
3x/13 = 810
3x = 810 × 13
3x = 10530
x = 10530/3
x = 3510
Therefore, the monthly rent is $3510
Answer:
<h2>
4.16%</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
decrease 7%
100 - 7% = 93
increase 12%
93 + 12% = 104.16
104.16 - 100 = 4.16%

$50
$15 + $35 (5 weeks) = $50
$35 + $15 (5 weeks) = $50
