Anne has 24 more cards than Devi. Anne finds that 3/5 of Devi's cards are equal to 1/2 of her cards. How many cards does Anne have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: LET ANNE HAS X NUMBER OF CARDS
LET DEVI HAS Y NUMBER OF CARDS
X-Y= 24 ------EQ 1
3/5Y=1/2X
6Y=5X (cross multiplying)-------EQ 2
FROM EQ 1 WE GET
X=24+Y
substituting the value of x in eq 2, we get
6y=5(24+y)
6y =120+5y
y= 120

NOW, PUTTING THE VALUE OF Y IN EQ 1
X-120=24
X=24+120
X=144
THEREFORE, ANNE HAS 144 CARDS

Answer 2

Answer: a=Anne's cards
D= Devi's cards
d+24=a
3d/5=a/2
6d/5=a
6d/5=d+24
6d/5-d=24
6d-5d=120
d=120
a=144

The cost of a ticket to the circus is $19.00 forchildren and $42.00 for adults. On a certain day,
attendance at the circus was 1,700 and the total
gate revenue was $55,300. How many children and
how many adults bought tickets?

Answers

Answer:

The number of tickets bought is 1000 adults tickets and 700 children were present

Explanation:

Let the number of children and adults present in the circus be x and y respectively

According to question,

Then, x + y = 1700 ……………..equation (1)

And, cost of ticket to circus for children and adult be 19, 42 respectively

Totalcost of ticket;

for adults = 42y; for children = 19x

19x + 42y = 55300 …………………equation (2)

Multiplying equation (1) by 19

19x + 19y = 32300 ……………… eqn (3)

Subtracting equation 1 and 3, we get

23y = 23000

y = 1000

putting this value in eq (1), we get x = 700

Therefore, 1000 adults and 700 children were present.
