Sorry, but I can only see the algebra way
in the morning, he sold 24 plus 2/7 of what he had left
what he had left was all-24
2/7 of left was sold
5/7of the ones left=1/2 of all
2/7 of left+24=1/2 of all
therefor
5/7 of the ones left=2/7 of the ones left+24
minus 2/7 of left fro mboth sides
3/7 of the ones left=24
divide both sides by 3
1/7 of the ones left=8
times 7 both sides
ones left=56
left+24=1/2 of all
56+24=1/2 of all
80=1/2 of all
times 2
160=all
he had 160 to start with
5 + 1/4 by definition cannot be whole.
5 + 1/4 = 5.00 + 0.25 = 5.25
5.25 isn't whole.
Answer:
A. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
In such a geometry the measure of the angle is the average of the measures of the intercepted arcs.
∠1 = ∠3 = (50° +30°)/2 = 40°
