i got this one sec

Answer 10

Ok so then 5x12 is 60 so divide 60 into 4

Answer 11

We should know:
1 year = 12 months

Given: Doubles every 4 months

So:
4 * 3 =12

Therefore:
1 year, there is 3 sets of 4 months. Hence: 4 * 3 = 12

Then:
2 years have 6 sets of 4 months.

3 years have 9 sets of 4 months

4 years have 12 sets of 4 months

5 years have 15 sets of 4 months

Good so far?

Answer 12

Okay o-o
