我女儿的数学问题,第一道:
Three boys,Aron,ben and charlie shared the cost of a birthday present for ...
Sorry for late reply.
Although you've got the answer, I list my working as following: (Thanks to these who provide answers)
Problem 1:
A : (B+C)=1:3, B : (A+C)=1:5,
1+3=4, 1+5=6,
The Least Common Multiple for 4 & 6 is 12.
Let A's share be 3u, B's share be 2u, then C's share will be 7u.
7u-2u=5u=$50,
u=$10.
12u=$120.
Problem 2:
Four drinks cost as much as 3 chicken wings. (1)
Five drinks cost $2.80 more than 2 chicken wings. (2)
Five drinks equal to one drink plus 4 drinks. According (1), we can get one drink plus 3 chicken wings cost $2.80 more than 2 chicken wings. That is one drink plus one chicken wing cost $2.80.
$42/$2.80=15.
