Answer:
66 sweets
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
We are told that the ratio for sharing the sweet is 4:7
that is Jack takes 4 parts and Josh takes 7 paths
If Josh got 18 more
then Let the amount that Jack got be x
so that Josh got x+18
step two:
applying the part to part method, we can find the quantity each of them go
4/7= x/x+18
cross multiply
7x= 4x+72
collect like terms
7x-4x= 72
3x=72
divide both sides by 3
x= 72/3
x= 24
so Jack got 24 sweets
and Josh got 24+18=42 sweets
in all the sweets = 66 sweets
Hi there,
So lets look at this problem. Ron has 20 pennies. Pam has 20 pennies. If Ron has 4 groups each group will have 5 pennies to add up to 20. Pam will have 5 groups and each group will have 4 pennies to add up to 20.
Therefore Ron will have more pennies in his group.
14/16 or 28/32 but can’t be more simplified
If a square contains 171 tiles you will need multiply 21 by 171 (171x21) which should give you the amount for the entire roof.
Hope this helps! :)
