Let's call their parts w,m and s
if will paid 1/3, then m+s=2w (they paid 2/3, which is twice as much as will did)
Now, we know that:
Micah and Sue paid in the ratio 2:3.
this means the 3m=2s
and m=2/3s
Again:
m+s=2w
and we substitute m:
2/3s+s=2w
5/3s=2w// multiply both sides by 3
5s=6w
we also know that s=w+6 (from the last sentence) so we substitute:
5(w+6)=6w
5w+30=6w
30=w
so, Will paid 30, Sue paid 36 (six more than him), Mike paid 24 (24:36 is the same ratio as 2:3, you can check this by dividing both 24 and 36 by 12: you have 2 and 3)
and the total was 30+36+24=90.
Answer:
B) First, find two areas using (4m x 10m = 40m2) and (8m x 3m = 24m2). Next, add (40m2 + 24m2 = 64m2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Samuel should is looking to find the area of his basement in order to cover it with carpet.
An area is calculated by multiplying two dimensions (so answers A and D are not it).
Best solution is to divide the area into two large rectangles then ADD them together to get the total area.
The only scenario where he could have subtracted something based on his plan is if he would have multiplied the 10m by the 12m then subtracted the area that is not part of his basement (7mx8m). He would have achieved the same result of course, but by going a different way.
