Vesna [10]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total no. of strawberries, Let Sue be "S", Let Jim be "J" and Dan be "D"

S = 2x/7

J = 54+S -> J = 54+(2x/7)

D = 78

J+D = 5x/7

54+(2x/7)+78 = 5x/7

132+2x/7 = 5x/7

132 = (5x/7)-(2x/7)

132 = 3x/7

132*7 = 3x

924/3 = x

x = 308.

Therefore, there were initially 308 strawberries in the basket.

Of which; Sue had two-sevenths: 88, Jim had 142 and Dan had 78

To verify our answer, add these to see if we get 308

S+J+D = 308

88 + 142 + 78 = 308

An Easter basket contains eggs of three different colors. Find the total number of eggs in the basket if 2 7 of all eggs are gre
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Total number of eggs in basket = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z be the total number of eggs

Green eggs = \frac{2}{7} × z   ........1

Blue eggs =  \frac{1}{4} × z    .......2

Rest of eggs = 26  ........3

The addition of 1, 2 and 3 is equal to z  

\frac{2}{7} × z + \frac{1}{4} + 26 = z

\frac{8z + 7 z}{28} + 26 = z                        ∵GCF for 4 and 7 is 28  

\frac{15z}{28}  + 26 = z

15z + (26 × 28) = 28z                ∵ multiply both sides by 28

15z + 728 = 28z

28z - 15z = 728     .......... rearranging above equation

13z = 728  ⇒   z = \frac{728}{13}   ⇒  z = 56

Total number of eggs = z = 56
