What are the 7 & 9 for? Obviously, you had info from somewhere else for the 9 & 7 if they are THE ONLY NUMBERS here
Answer:
£100
Step-by-step explanation:
if the ratio is 7:3, the difference between them is 7-3 . = 4.
So,
4x = £40
Now, calculate x
x = £10
Now,
we are able to calculate:
7x (Bridget's share) = £70
3x (Caroline's share) = £30
Sum = £100
Hope this helps.
Good Luck
Let
x = first consecutive odd
x + 2 = second consecutive odd
Based on the problem, we equate
x + (x + 2) = 32
Solving for x,
2x + 2 = 32
2x = 32 - 2
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
and x + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
Therefore, the integers are 15 and 17.
