Answer:

  Altogether, they had ?28

Step-by-step explanation:

Had Obi spent only ?12, they would have been even. Thus ?12 is the same as 5-2 = 3 "ratio units". So, each "ratio unit" is worth ?12/3 = ?4.

Then Obi started the day with 5·4 = 20, and Obi started the day with 2·4 = 8. Obi ended with 0, which is 8 less than Rudy.

Altogether, they started with 20 + 8 = 28 of whatever a ? is.

Answer:

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2.

Money Obi has = 5 r

Money Rudy has = 2 r

Obi spent 20 that day and bi now had 8 less than Rudy

               5r -20 = 2r - 8

               3r = 12

                 r = 4

Initial money they have

                Obi = 5r = 5 x 4 = 20

                 Rudy = 2 x 4 = 8

Altogether they have 20+8 = 28

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

Katarina bought a package of 500 stickers. Each sheet in the package has 20 stickers.
Mashcka [7]
I think there are 125 heart stickers and 375 star stickers. 20/4 = 5, so there are 5 heart stickers per sheet. there are 25 sheets in the package, 5 x 25 = 125. if the remaining stickers on a sheet are stars then there are 15 star stickers per sheet. 15 x 25 = 375.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:The amount of paint that was sold altogether is 173.36 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of paint that the paint shop stocks is 1800 litres.

24% of the paint is white. It means that the amount of white paint would be

24/100 × 1800 = 0.24 × 1800 = 432 litres.

The amount of the remaining paint other than white would be

1800 - 432 = 1368 litres

The shops sells 18% of the white paint. This means that the amount of white paint sold by the shop will be

18/100 × 432 = 0.18 × 432 = 77.6 litres.

The shops sells 7% of the rest of the paint.

This means that the amount of the rest paint sold by the shop will be

7/100 × 1368 = 0.07 × 1368 = 95.76 litres.

The amount of paint that was sold altogether would be

77.6 + 95.76 = 173.36 litres
