The ratio of money in Brian's wallet to Colin's wallet one day was 7:2.
Brian spent £39 that day.
Brian now had £4 less than Colin.
How much did they initially have altogether?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Brian initially had money in his wallet = £x

and Colin had the money = £y

Since ratio of money in Brian's wallet to Colin's wallet was 5 : 1

Therefore,  

⇒ x = 5y -------(1)

Brian spent £27 that day, so money left with him = £(x - 27)

After spending the money Brian had £3 less than Colin.

(x - 27) = (y - 3)

x = y + 27 - 3

x = y + 24 -------(2)

Now we equate the equations (1) and (2) for the value of x,

5y = y + 24

5y - y = 24

4y = 24

y = £6

From equation (2),

x = 6 + 24

x = £30

Therefore, Brian initially had £30.

i hope this helps

During the summer, Breanna works at a coffee shop. She saves 75% of her earnings to buy new school clothes. If Breanna earns $750, what is the best estimate for the amount of money she saves to buy clothes?

Answers

Answer: The best estimate for the amount of money she saves to buy clothes = $ 562.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Breanna saves 75% of her earnings to buy new school clothes.

Earnings for Breanna = $ 750

The amount of money she saves to buy clothes = 75% of 750

= 0.75 x  750   [75%= 0.75]

= $ 562.5

Hence, the best estimate for the amount of money she saves to buy clothes =  $ 562.5

A company makes cylindrical crackers that have a cylindrical hole in the middle.

The diameter of the entire cracker is 16 mm the diameter of the hole is 8 mm, and the cracker is 18 mm long.
What is the volume of the material used in each cracker?
Round to the nearest cubic millimeter.

Answers

Answer:

2714 mm3

Step-by-step explanation:

   Volume of the material used in each cylindrical cracker is 2714 cubic mm.

Volume of a cylinder: Volume of a cylinder is given by the expression,

         Volume = πr²h

Given in the question,

Cylindrical cracker have a cylindrical hole in middle. Diameter of entire cracker = 16 mm Diameter of the cylindrical hole = 8 mm Length of the cracker = 18 mm

Material used in cracker = Volume of the whole cracker - Volume of the cylindrical hole

                                         = [tex]\pi (\frac{16}{2} )^2(18)-\pi (\frac{8}{2} )^2(18)[/tex]

                                         =  1152π - 288π

                                         = 864π

                                         = 2714.34

                                         ≈ 2714 cubic mm.

  Therefore, volume of the material used in each cracker will be 2714 mm³.

Answers

The ratio of apple trees to peach trees,  if 3/7 of the trees are peaches is

4:3.

A ratio compares two quantities by division, with the dividend or number being divided termed the antecedent and the divisor or number that is dividing termed the consequent.

Ratios compare two numbers, usually by dividing them. If you are comparing one data point (A) to another data point (B), your formula would be A/B. This means you are dividing information A by information B.

We have been given that

In an orchard of apple and peach trees, 3/7 of the trees are peaches.

Find out

The ratio of apple trees to peach trees?

To simplify a ratio, divide each number in the ratio by the same amount. To fully simplify a ratio, divide each number in the ratio by their highest common factor. Always keep the numbers in the ratio as whole numbers.

Let the number of total trees in orchard is 7 i.e. denominator of fraction.

Then the no. of peaches tree are  3

so the no. of apple tree in the  orchard = 4
