1st: 2x-3 2nd: 2x-1 3rd: 2x+1 4th: 2x+3
adding the above you get 8x=184
Answer:
252 bags of maize
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize
In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize
In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4
This means
3:4 = 2013: 2012.
Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x
3/4 = x/ 144
Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144
x = 3 × 144/ 4
× = 108
This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013
The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144
= 252 bags of maize.
