Answer: it will take them about 24 minutes working together
Step-by-step explanation:
1/40 + 1/60 =
6/240 + 4/240 = 10/240 = 1/24
1/24 = 1/t
Cross multiplication:
1*t = 1*24
t= 24
If Eli cut both pieces into 4th's, in all they would have 8 4th's.
Because 4 + 4 + 8 :)
The total number of kids:
8+24 = 32
the ratio is 24:32
it simplifies into 3:4
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5/2 & x = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Create two equations and solve
1) 2x-5 = 0 & 2) 3x-1 = 0
1) 2x = 5
x = 5/2
2) 3x = 1
x = 1/3
You create two equations as you want the left hand side (LHS) to equal 0 (RHS), thus if one of the brackets becomes 0 it will result in the whole LHS beocming 0 as the brackets are being multiplied (anything multiplied by 0 = 0)
