Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
16/20 reduces down to 2/5
set 2/5=x/80
cross multiply 160=5x
divide 32=x
check 2/5=32/80
32/80; 16/40; 8/20; 4/10; 2/5
yay 32 is the answer good luck :)
I assume you're looking for the number:
0.5n + 9 = 21
- 9
0.5n = 12
÷ 0.5
n = 24
So the beginning number is 24, hope this helps!
-30 is the answer for your question
<span>Neighbor: 2/5(x) </span>
<span>Remainder = x - 2/5(x) = 3/5(x) </span>
<span>Cousin = 4/9 * 3/5(x) = 4/15(x) </span>
<span>x - 2/5(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 6/15(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 10/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>(15x - 10x) = 225 </span>
<span>5x = 225 </span>
<span>x = 225/5 = 45 </span>
<span>Therefore, he made 45 rolls</span>
