Answer:
1 7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
2-1=1
then you make 2/3 and 1/5 have the same denominator -
5*3=15
?/15 ?/15
multiply 2 by 5 which is 10, so 10/15
then multiply 1 by 3 which is 3/15
subtract 3/15 from 10/15 which is 7/15
Hi!
We know that Mr. Abraham’s wife is 6 years younger than him, which is 36-6, which means his wife is 30 years old.
We also know that Mr A’s son is 24 years younger than his wife, which is 30-24, which is 6.
As of right now, we now know that:
Mr. A is 36
Mr. A’s wife is 30
Mr. A’s son is 6
It’s asking for the ratio of Him:Wife:Son, so 36:30:6.
BUT, it’s asking for simplest form, so divide each of those numbers by 6.
Your answer is: 6:5:1
6+2=8, right? Okay. Next, all you have to do is take away the equation "6+2". Now what you have is... 8x5. That's easy! 40. This is a very easy problem if you think about it.
