Answer:
Siw's age is 10 years old
Mona's age is 8 yers old
Mother's age is 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> Siw's age
y ---> Mona's age
z ---> Mother's age
we know that
Siw is a fourth as old as mother
so
----> equation A
Mona is a fifth as old as mother
so
----> equation B
Mother is 22 years older than the two girls together.
so
----> equation C
substitute equation A and equation B in equation C
solve for z
Multiply by 20 both sides to remove the fraction
Find the value of x
Find the value of y
therefore
Siw's age is 10 years old
Mona's age is 8 yers old
Mother's age is 40 years old
Answer:
One-half squared is one-fourth.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you divide fractions, you multiply the first term by the reciprocal of the second term. In this example, instead of multiplying 1/2 by 1/4, you now multiply 1/2 by 4. Therefore, one half is equal to 2 fourths.
Ok, so she started off with $5.00.
She bought milk for $2.99.
She buys bread, which costs $1.50.
Subtracting the money she wasted, the total would be $0.51.
The only thing she could buy is 5 pieces of gum for 25 cents.
Her change will be $0.26.
Hope this helps!
