Ria can paint a room in 4 hours. Destiny can paint the same room in 6 hours. How long would it take Ria and Destiny to paint the
Lerok [7]

Time taken by Ria to paint a room = 4 hours

Time taken by Destiny to paint a room = 6 hours

If they work together, they complete 1 job. So,

\frac{1x}{4}+\frac{1x}{6}=1

The LCD of 4 and 6 is 12

\frac{3x+2x}{12}=1

\frac{5x}{12}=1

5x=12

x=\frac{12}{5}

Hence, both of them can paint the room in \frac{12}{5} hours or 2.4 hours.

2.5 kg of cabbages cost £1.20<br><br> Work out the cost of 3.75 kg
s2008m [1.1K]
Thank you for your question!

In order to get the cost of 1 kg of cabbage, divide the cost by the quantity:

1.20/2.5
0.48

Now, multiply the amount for 1 kg to 3.75, because you need 3.75 times the amount.

0.48 * 3.75
1.80

So, it would cost 1.80 pounds for 3.75 kg.
Hope this helped!

Eli, Freda and Geoff were given £800 to share in the ratio of their ages.
algol13
First, we are going to find the sum of their age. To do that we are going to add the age of Eli, the age Freda, and the age of <span>Geoff:
</span>9+13+18=40
The combined age of Eli, Freda, and Geoff is 40, so the denominator of each ratio will be 40.

Next, we are going to multiply the ratio between the age of the person and their combined age by <span>£800:
For Eli: </span>\frac{9}{40} *800=180
For Freda: \frac{13}{40} *800=260
For Geoff: \frac{18}{40} *800=360
<span>
We can conclude that Eli will get </span>£180, Freda will get £260, and Geoff will get <span>£360.</span>
