Answer:

4 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of candy she has is 15 + 9 = 24 pieces. She has three younger brothers, and 24 is divisible by 3 (24/3 = 8). 15 and 9 are also both divisible by 3 (15/3 = 5 and 9/3 = 3).

-She can give them each 5 tootsie rolls.

-She can give them each 3 twizzlers.

- She can give them each 5 tootsie rolls and 3 twizzlers (if she were to give them all of the candy)

- She can give them one of each which would leave her 12 tootsie rolls and 6 twizzlers (which is the best option if she's trying to save for herself)

I see 4 ways to do this, and 2 ways after her mother asks her to give at least 1 type of candy to each of them.

All I need is this answer,please help!!

Hello there,

There is a total of 40 animals in that in 10 zebras, 10 lions, 10 elephants, and 10 monkeys.
So the probability of them both being lions is pretty rare. 2/40 so that would give you a 1/20 chance of both crackers being both lions.

I hope this helps!

Lian invested an amount of money at an interest rate of 5.2% per year.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

$6500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money invested by Lian be $x

Interest rate = 5.2% per year

interest earned in first year will be  5.2% of  amount of money invested by Lian .

(note: since in first year there will be no interest accrued on interest so interest for first year is simple interest )

interest earned in one year if money invested by Lian is $x

= 5.2% of $x  (1)

But , it is given in one year  she received interest of 338 dollars

so, 338 dollars must be equal to 5.2% of $x

equating $338 with  5.2% of $x  , we have

5.2% of x  = 338

=> (5.2/100) * x = 338

=>5.2 x = 338*100

=> x = 33800/5.2 = 6500.

Thus,  amount of money Lian invested is $6500.
