Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
180-30=150
150/2=75
Short Answer: 18 minutes
Remark
The answer to this problem is less than the smallest time of the two people working together. that fact lets out C and D (38 minutes and 75 minutes). Now you have to choose 15 minutes and 18 minutes. There's a method. No guessing needed.

Let the time for Sophie = S
Let the time for Simon = M
Let the job to completion = 1
S = 45 minutes
M = 30 minutes
Step One
Convert minutes to hours.
45 minutes = 45 / 60 = 3/4 hour = 0.75 hour
30 minutes = 30 / 60 = 1/2 hour = 0.50 hour
Step Two
Set up the Equation
The formula is a form of job / hour.
Let the time = t that they both have to work
job = 1 in these problems.
1/S + 1/M = 1/t
1/0.75 + 1/0.5 = 1/t
Solve
1 ÷ 0.75 = 1.33333
1 ÷ 0.5 = 2
1.3333 + 2 = 3.33333
3.3333 = 1 / t Multlply both sides by t
3.3333*t = 1
t = 1 / 3.333333333
t = 0.3 of an hour
1 hour = 60 minutes
0.3 hours = x Cross Multiply
x = 60 * 0.3
x = 18 minutes
Answer working together it took them 18 minutes <<<<<
Getting the central area of a polygon is not possible. Probably the question refers to the central angle. In a a regular polygon, getting the central angle is that you need to use the formula.
Central Angle of a polygon = 360 degrees / number of sides of a polygon.
Why 360 degrees? Because, a circle has a total of 360 degrees. And a circle is a polygon with no sides.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of sales each man had.
For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.
For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.
Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:
65x = 40x+300
Subtract 40x from each side:
65x-40x = 40x+300-40x
25x = 300
Divide both sides by 25:
25x/25 = 300/25
x = 12
Answer:
260 stickers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Gareth's stickers be x.
Hence Cheryl sticker is 160+x;
If Cheryl gave 185 stickers
to Gareth, it means:
Cheryl has at the moment;
160 + x - 185 = x - 25
At this time when Gareth receives 185 he now has:
x+ 185
Also when he receives x +185, he has 3 times Cherry's meaning:
x+185 =3(x-25)
x + 185 = 3x -75
185 + 75 = 3x-2x
260= x
x = 260.
Hence Gareth has 260 stickers
