We have a system of equations here:
Let 'a' = adult tickets and 'c' = children's tickets
5.80c + 9.00a = 1056.20
We also know that the total number of tickets (adults and children) was 149:
a + c = 149
We need only solve the system.
Answer:
one-fifths math problem=14/5
three-fiiths math problems=43/5
the nearest math problem will be four-fifths problem=58
5 13/20
turns into 113/20
answer: 5.65
This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>
