Here, we have to analyse the words and ages
The first statement is "Tom is younger than Andy" means Andy is older than Tom. So first comes Andy and then Tom. Let's Rank Andy =1 and Tom = 2 with 1 assigned to the older.
Now, the next statement is "John is not older than Tom" This means John is younger than Tom. This also means Tom is older than John. So John would become the youngest and hence we assign John = 3 (meaning the youngest)
Ordering from Youngest to oldest would be John (Rank 3), Tom (Rank 2) and Andy (Rank 1)
To conclude the order from youngest to oldest would be John,Tom,Andy
Answer:
for the first answer your answer was correct, it was the second answer that was wrong. So the first answer is 2 3/4. The second answer would be 81 centimeters because it grew that much.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the first answer add the starting height and ending height. To find how much it grew convert the total ending height of the tree to cm by multiply by 100, so 275. Then subtract 356 by 275 because you are finding out how much it grew. Take away 275 from 356 and you get 81
124 tickets sold at $9.20 = $1140.80
124÷4 =31
31 tickets sold at $5.30 = $164.30
$1140.80+$164.30=$1305.10
so so if you take the 124 tickets and divide it by 4 you get 31. The answer is 31 rickets were sold that day.
You can either do this on the calculator, or in your head. As its a larger number, it is worth doing it on the calculator.
413/14= 29.5
The alternative method is to list all of the tens multiples, and the smaller multiples when you're getting close to the answer, and this will be able to help you.
14x10= 140
14x20=280
14x30= 420 (which is slightly too big)
14x29= 406 (slightly too small)
14x29.5= 413
Hope this helps :)
