Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.
2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.
3. Next, form an equation using these variables.
x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121
x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121
4.84x = 121
x = 25
4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.
<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps
<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps
<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps
By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!
Answer:
10(x - 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
10(x - 12)
10x - 120 Distributive Property
Answer:
6:10.
Step-by-step explanation:
4 : 40 + 1 : 30 = 5 : 70
because 60 minutes make an hour and on the minutes side has more than 60, we have to minus 60 minutes and carry the one hour to the other side which is the Hour side.
5 : 70........ minus 60 to get 10.
5 + 1 to get 6.
therfore it is 6 : 10
