They buy the van for £8,500 + VAT 20%:

Total paid for the van = £8,500 x 1.20 = £10,200

They make 12 payments of £531.25 for a total of:

12 x £531.25 = £6,375

To find the amount of deposit, subtract the total payments from total cost:

£10,200 - £6,375 = £3,825

The ratio of deposit to the payments is: 3825 : 6375

Reduce the answer by dividing both numbers by 75:

3825/75 = 51

6375 / 75 = 85

The ratio becomes: 51/85

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches. If Stanley has 49 seashells from Flori

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be $x.$

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

$35\%\ of\ x=49.$

⇒ $\frac{35}{100} \times x=49$

⇒ $0.35\times x=49$

⇒ $0.35x=49$

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ $x=140.$

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

If r is the midpoint of qs rs=2x-4, st= 4x-1 and rt = 8x-43 find qs

sammy [17]

Answer:

$QS=68\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of x

we know that

r is the midpoint of qs

QR=RS

QS=QR+RS------> QS=2RS -----> equation A

RT=RS+ST ----> equation B

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Substitute the given values in the equation B and solve for x

$8x-43=(2x-4)+(4x-1)$

$8x-43=6x-5$

$8x-6x=43-5$

$2x=38$

$x=19$

step 2

Find the value of RS

$RS=2x-4$

substitute the value of x

$RS=2(19)-4$

$RS=34\ units$

step 3

Find the value of QS

Remember equation A

QS=2RS

$QS=2(34)=68\ units$

After a (not very successful) trick or treating round, Candice has 15 Tootsie rolls and 9 Twizzlers in her pillow case. Her moth

VladimirAG [237]

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.
