Three friends participated in a fund-raising project. Dexter collected 2/5 of the total amount. Carter collected $272 more than Jack. Jack collected $764 how much did the three of them collect altogether?
There were 1,265 people at a boat show. After 1/5 of the adults and 1/3 of the children left, there was an equal number of children and adults at the show. how many people left the show?
I pretty sure the answer to the first question is 3,000. I got this by adding the 272 more Carter got to the 764 and then adding the 764 that Jack collected. I then got 1,800. I divided it by 3 cause it was 3/5 of the final project. I got 600 from that. The I did 600 times 5 and got 3,000. I don't know if it's right but it might help...
