Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 parts

divide the amount by 6 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£102 ÷ 6 = £17 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

2 parts = 2 × £17 = £34

3 parts = 3 × £17 = £51

Gavyn gets £17

Pip gets £34

Mark gets £51

A stick 43 inches long is broken into two pieces, so that one piece is twice as long as the other. How long are the two pieces?

allsm [11]

Answer:

One piece is $\frac{43}{3}$ inches and another piece is $\frac{86}{3}$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let smaller piece length be $s$

Let larger piece length be $l$

Since total of two pieces is 43, we can write:

$s+l=43$

Also, one piece is twice as long as the other (so longer piece is definitely twice as the short piece), we can write:

$l=2s$

Substituting equation 2 into equation one, we can solve for s:

$s+l=43\\s+(2s)=43\\3s=43\\s=\frac{43}{3}$

Thus longer piece is:

$l=2s=2(\frac{43}{3})=\frac{86}{3}$

A television and DVD player cost a total of $1230. The cost of the television is two times the cost of the DVD player. Find the

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Television = 820

DVD Player = 410

Step-by-step explanation: Imagine the television as 2, and the DVD player as 1. If you’re were to draw it out with boxes, you’d see that the tv has two boxes and the DVD player has 1 box. All are exactly the same amount, and there are a total of three boxes. So divided 1230 by 3 and you get 410. Using the idea of the boxes, the DVD player get’s one 410, and the tv gets two 410s, or 820.
