Answer:

2 × 54,000 ÷ (1+2)

£36,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of the business = £54,000

wages : other costs = 2 : 1

Total ratio = 2 + 1 = 3

How much do I spend on wages every year?

Amount spent on wages yearly = ratio of wages / total ratio × Total cost of the business

= 2 × 54,000 ÷ (1+2)

= 2/3 × £54,000

= £108,000/3

= £36,000

Amount spent on wages yearly = £36,000

klemol [59]

Answer:

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of each drink = $4

Cost of each pretzel = $5

Total money = 65

Total number of drink and pretzel = 14

Find:

Number of drink and pretzel

Computation:

Number of drink = x

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

So,

x(4) + (14-x)5 = 65

4x + 70 - 5x = 65

x = 5

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

Number of pretzel = 14 - 5 = 9
