Answer: 12 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X and Y stand for the number of students in each respective class.
We know:
X/Y = 2/5, and
Y = X+24
We want to find the number of students, x, that when transferred from Y to X, will make the classes equal in size. We can express this as:
(Y-x)/(X+x) = 1
---
We can rearrange X/Y = 2/5 to:
X = 2Y/5
The use this value of X in the second equation:
Y = X+24
Y =2Y/5+24
5Y = 2Y + 120
3Y = 120
Y = 40
Since Y = X+24
40 = X + 24
X = 16
--
Now we want x, the number of students transferring from Class Y to Class X, to be a value such that X = Y:
(Y-x)=(X+x)
(40-x)=(16+x)
24 = 2x
x = 12
12 students must transfer to the more difficult, very early morning, class.
Hi!
I'm quite sure the answer should be 24.
The numbers are:
3.9 × 105 = 409.5
6.1 ×103 = 628.3
9.3 × 105 = 976.5
1.6 × 103 = 164.8
Arranging from greatest to least and in scientific notation form gives:
9.3 × 105 , 6.1 × 103 , 3.9 × 105 , 1.6 × 103
