Answer:

Erin gets £90

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio = 5 : 2 : 7

Money with Erin = 5x

Money with Faye = 2x

Money with Sachin = 7x

Faye gets £90 less than Sachin

7x -  2x = 90

      5x = 90

        x = 90/5

        x = 18

Money with Erin = 5*18 = 90

Mike and Ken shared some stamps. \frac{1}{5} 5 1 ​ of Ken's stamps were \frac{1}{3} 3 1 ​ of Mike's stamps. If Mike gave Ken 24
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Mike had 72 stamps

Ken had 120 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

M \to Mike

K \to Ken

\frac{1}{5} * K = \frac{1}{3} * M

K + 24 = 3 * ( M - 24)

Required

Find K and M

Make K the subject in: K + 24 = 3 * ( M - 24)

K = 3 * ( M - 24) - 24

Substitute K = 3 * ( M - 24) - 24 in \frac{1}{5} * K = \frac{1}{3} * M

\frac{1}{5} * [3 * ( M - 24) - 24] = \frac{1}{3} * M

Open brackets

\frac{1}{5} * [3M - 72 - 24] = \frac{1}{3} * M

\frac{1}{5} * [3M -96] = \frac{1}{3} * M

Multiply both sides by 15

3* [3M -96] = 5 * M

9M -288 = 5M

Collect like terms

9M -5M= 288

4M= 288

Divide both sides by 4

M= 72

Substitute M= 72 in K = 3 * ( M - 24) - 24

K = 3 * (72 - 24) - 24

K = 3 * 48 - 24

K = 120
