Question

Three business partners are to share profits of $24000 in the ratio of 5:4:3. What is the amount of the largest share?

Answer 1

In order to find how much one portion is, you need to divide the total profit by the number of shares.

5+4+3=?
24,000/?=?

Answer 2

11
?

Answer 3

5+4+3=11 is false,want to try again?

Answer 4

Oops i ment 12

Answer 5

Awesome, now that we know this number, we may divide our total profit of 24,000 by 12.

24,000/12=?

Answer 6

Um 12x2=24 So 200?

Answer 7

I assume you meant 2,000, but sorta yes.

If you take 2,000 and multiply it by the largest share of 5, you will have your answer.

2,000*5=the answer

Answer 29

and this one is easy and ------ How many $$$ is for 21 donuts
1donut=0.49$ ------box of 6=1.89$------box of 12=3.59$ =
so i just did 3.59+3.59 it will equal 7.18 and i - that by .49 equaling to 6.69

Answer 30

$6.95

12=3.59
6=1.89
3=1.47

3.59+1.89+1.47=6.95

Answer 31

12+6+3=21

Answer 32

How you got that i did 7.18$ and then i subtract it by .49 +6.69

Answer 33

3.59 for 12, so 3.59*2=7.18
12*2=24
24-21=3
.49*3=1.47
7.18-1.47=5.71

It depends on how the person does the problem.

Answer 34

.49*21=10.29

Answer 35

I'm still feeling 6.95 because it is separated accordingly and then added, but it really depends.

Answer 36

i Think thats incorrect just by saying *(0.49$)*-7.18$)=6.69

Answer 37

Then go with what you feel is right, seeing as there are multiple "correct" answers.

Answer 38
