Hope this helps tried to color code it
I got 12 because each time you are dividing the number in half. Half of 24 is 12.
Answer:
1000
Step-by-step explanation:
First write an equation system based on the problem
We can write "<span>Bread and sugar cost 110 together" as
</span>∴ b + s = 110
We can write "<span>bread cost 100 more than sugar" as
</span>∴ b = 100 + s
<span>
Second, solve the equation system by subtitution method
Subtitute b with (100+s) in the first equation, and we'll find the value of s
b + s = 110
(100 + s) + s = 110
100 + 2s = 110
2s = 110 - 100
2s = 10
s = 10/2
s = 5
The cost of the sugar is 5</span>
The LCD (least common denominator) is the lowest number that both denominators (12 and 5) go into. The lowest number that both 5 and 12 go into is 60. The LCD of the two fractions is 60.
