Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
21 feet below is written as -21
9 feet up is written as +9
So we have -21 + 9 = -12 or 12 feet below sea level
Given that Joseph has 24 cousins, and he has 6 more females than males, the number of females will be obtained as follows;
suppose he had x males, number of females will be x+6.
The total will be:
x+(x+6)=24
x+x+6=24
2x+6=24
2x=24-6
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9
thus the number of male cousins is 9, the number of female cousins will be 9+6=15
We therefore conclude that he has 9 male cousins and 15 female cousins
2/3+4/9
denominator= 3*9=27
numerator = (18+12)= 30
therefore the answer is 30/27= 10/9
