Answer:
a). The total number of cattle shared among the three children=200
b). Anita's share=120 cattle
Lordia's share=32 cattle
Richmond's share=48 cattle
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Step 1
Determine fraction shared between Lordia and Richmond as follows;
Lordia:Richmond=2:3
Let the total cattle be x
Lordia's fraction=2/(2+3)=2/5 of x=(2/5)x
Lordia's fraction=(2/5)x
Richmond's fraction=3/(2+3)=3/5 of x=(3/5) x
but;
x=80 cattle
replacing;
Total number of cattle Lordia got=(2/5)×80=32 cattle
Total number of cattle Richmond got=(3/5)×80=48 cattle
Step 2
Express the total cattle Mr. Atinga had initially as follows;
Let the initial number of cattle be y
The fraction remainder given to Lordia and Richmond=Initial number-fraction of the totat given to Anita
where;
Initial number=y
fraction of the total given to Anita=3/5 y
replacing;
The fraction remainder given to Lordia and Richmond=y-3/5 y=2/5 y
but;
2/5 y=80
y=80×5/2=
y=200
The total number of cattle shared among the three children=200
b).
Anita's share=(3/5)×200=120 cattle
Lordia's share=(2/5)×80=32 cattle
Richmond's share=(3/5)×80=48 cattle
Answer:
x=15 over 7
