Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume each person in the group must have 1 pencil AND 1 eraser each.
Since you have more pencils than erasers, then the limiting factor is the number of erasers. So a group of 56 people will have 1 pencil And 1 eraser and Clare will have 24 pencils left over (assuming Clare has her own pencil and eraser - if not then the group size is 55 assuming Clare is not in the group)
sorry if it's too confusing

Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
(24+x)(16+x)=660
384+24x+16x+x²=660
x²+40x-276=0
x`= 6
x```= -46......no serve
Answer......is 6 feet
3 men
4 women
7 total
3 men/ 7 total = 198 men/ x total
using cross products
3*x = 7 * 198
divide each side by 3
x = 7*198/3
x = 462
There are 462 workers
If you mean 3 men and 1 women for a total of 4 workers when you state a ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.
3/4 =198/x
Using cross products
3x = 4* 198
Divide each side by 3
3x/3 = 4*198/3
x =264
264 workers
It all depends on how you define ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4. This is incorrect phrasing and I took it to be men to women. You cannot have a ratio of men and women.
