Answer:
37.5 acres.
Step-by-step explanation:
Fraction of his land where vegetables are grown
= 1 - 1/3 - 2/3 *3/5
(after taking away 1/3 we get 2/3 and the farmer uses 3/5 of this 2/3 to grow Maize.
= 1 - 1/3 - 6/15 LCD of 3 and 15= 15 so we write:
= 1 - 5/15 - 6/15
= 1 - (5+6)/16
= 1 - 11/15
= 4/15.
4 /15 is equivalent to 10 acres
so total area (= 1) = 10 / 4/15 Invert the 4/15 and multiply:
= 10 * 15/4
= 150/4
= 37.5 acres.
24x___ = 2.4
24/2.4 = 0.1
24x0.1 = 8x3/10
2.4 = 2.4
Let
R = Ralph's age
S = Sara's age
First statement is translated as:
S = 3R
Second statement is translated as:
S + 4 = 2(R + 4)
Use the first equation to be substituted into the second one in terms of R which is the one we are actually going to solve for Ralph's age.
Since S = 3R, then
3R + 4 = 2(R + 4)
3R + 4 = 2R + 8
3R - 2R = 8 - 4
R = 4 years old
