910 of Adam's money is equal to
16 of Bryan's money.
Adam has $10.
- How much does Bryan have?
- How much does Adam have less than Bryan?
- How much do they have altogether?
(a)
Make the numerators the same.
910 of Adam's money =
16 of Bryan's money
9 x 110 x 1 of Adam's money =
1 x 96 x 9 of Bryan's money
910 of Adam's money =
954 of Bryan's money
10 u = 10
1 u = 10 ÷ 10 = 1
Amount that Bryan has
= 54 u
= 54 x 1
= $54
(b)
Amount that Adam has less than Bryan
= 54 u - 10 u
= 44 u
= 44 x 1
= $44
(c)
Amount that they have altogether
= 10 u + 54 u
= 64 u
= 64 x 1
= $64
Answer(s): (a) $54; (b) $44; (c) $64
