Answer:
Western U gets 20 million
Norther U gets 40 million
Eastern U gets 50 million
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the amount each university gets.
Let
Northern U get n
Western U get w
Eastern U get e
We can write equations from the given word problem:
n + w + e = 110
and
n = 2w
e = n + w - 10
Putting 2nd in 3rd, we get:
e = 2w + w - 10
e = 3w - 10
Now putting this and 2nd in first, we solve for w:
n + w + e = 110
2w + w + 3w - 10 = 110
6w = 120
w = 20
AND n = 2 (20) = 40
AND e = 3(20) - 10 = 50
So,
Western U gets 20 million
Norther U gets 40 million
Eastern U gets 50 million

Total 41/50 fraction or 82% part of turkey was eaten.
A fraction is a numeral that represents a rational number.
Let a and b be two numbers, then their fraction can be represented as a/b.
Given that,
Fraction of turkey eaten by Uncle Bill = 1/4,
Percentage of turkey eaten by Chris = 15%,
Part of turkey eaten by Timmy = 0.3 or 3/10,
Percentage of turkey eaten by Dave = 12%.
To find the fraction of turkey that was eaten,
Convert percentage into fraction
Since, percentage of turkey eaten by Chris = 15%,
Fraction value of turkey eaten by Chris = 3/20
Also, percentage of turkey eaten by Dave = 12%.
Fraction value of turkey eaten by Dave = 3/25
Total fraction of turkey that was eaten = 1/4+3/20+3/10+3/25
= (25+15+30+12)/100
= 82/100
= 41/50
41/50 faction of turkey was eaten.
