Some degrees of comparison is good, will strive to do better
Hello Augmum, how's workload for DD? Much busier in Y3, right?

Ahmad and Halim together took 5 days to paint their house. If Ahmad and Halim work together for 2 days, followed by Ahmad working alone for 8 days, Halim will take 1 more day to complete the remaining work. How long will Ahmad take to apint the house all by himself?

Hi

This question touches on “Rates”.

There is more than one way to solve it.

One possible solution is:

When Ahamd and Halim work together, they can paint their house in 5 days.
In 1 day, they can paint 1/5 of their house or 1 unit.

Hence, 1 day of Ahmad + 1 day of Halim ----- 1 unit

In 2 days, they can paint 2/5(2 units) of their house, this means 3/5(3 units) of their house is left unpainted.

8 days of Ahmad + 1 day of Halim ----- 3 units
1 day of Ahmad + 1 day of Halim ----- 1 unit

Therefore, 7 days of Ahmad ----- 2 units
17.5 days ----- 5 units(whole house)

Ahmad took 17.5 days to paint the house all by himself.

Best wishes

Firsly, I think do you have a issue with deciding who is the 100%? That is usually on eof the common problem.Maybe you can send me ur solution then I can help u diagnose why u arrive at $740


Secondly, remember that Ratio, percentage and fraction can be used to solve a problem sum despite the question being a % question.

Solution (Ratio method) which is what I would usually use for this type of questions.


A : S
120 : 100
6 : 5
x 2 x 2
J : A
100 : 80
5 : 4
x 3 x 3

J : A : S
15 : 12 : 10

37 units --> 2220
1 unit --> 2220 ÷ 37
--> 60
12 units --> 60 x 12
--> $720

I am stuck again.

Amos'salary is 20% more than Steve's but 20% less than Joe's. If their total salary is $2220,find Amos's salary.

I always get the answer of 740 but answer given is 720.

Thank you
