Hiiiiii I really don’t know I have a glitch and your my only question
There is only one 2 and one 4 on a dice
So it’s a 2 out of six chance
Which can be simplified to 1/3
The answer is 1 and 1/12 because you have to have a common denomonator.
<span>Let's call these friends by their first initial:
K = Kiana, G = Gary, M = Monty, W = Willa
Now we can convert the question to a system of linear equations:
Gary has 3 cards more than Kiana, so G = K + 3
Monty has 7 cards more than Kiana, so M = K + 7
Willa has twice as many cards as Monty, so W = 2M = 2(K + 7) = 2K + 14
74 cards given out = all the friends combined, so
74
= K + G + M + W
= K + (K + 3) + (K + 7) + (2K + 14)
= 5K + 3 + 7 + 14
= 5K + 24
50 = 5K
10 = K, so Kiana had 10 cards
G = K + 3 = 13, so Gary had 13 cards
M = K + 7 = 17, so Monty had 17 cards
W = 2M = 34, so Willa had 34 cards
Checking our work, 10 + 13 + 17 + 34 = 74 cards total.</span>
Given that,
Total number of snails shells and shark teeth = 60
The ratio of snail shells to shark teeth is 5:1
To find,
Total no of snail shells used by the Jeweler.
Solution,
Let there are 5x snail shells and x shark shells.
According to question,
5x+x = 60
6x = 60
x = 10
Snail shell = 5x
= 5(10)
= 50
Hence, he uses 50 snail shells.
