      Sorry, my english not good . I do not understand the last two sentence. How you get 7p and 3p in the end. Thsnks.

      PapayaDad:
      13)In a concert, 75% of the audience were female. 75 females and 5 males left the concert half way. The remaining audience were allocated seats in groups of 10. Each group has 3 males. How many people were in the audience at first?

      before

      3u : 1u

      change

      -75 : -5

      after

      7p : 3p

      then

      3u-75.......7p
      u-5......3p

      make the part the same

      9u-225=7u-35
      2u=190
      u=95

      at first have 4u = 380

      check

      at first
      285:95
      change
      -75:5
      end
      210:90 which is 7:3 - correct

          1) At first, there were 234 more apples in Stall A than Stall B. After 78 apples were transferred fr Stall B to Stall A and 24 apples were thrown away fr Stall A, there were 4 times as many apples in Stall A as Stall B. How many apples were there in Stall B at first?


          In the end :

          A:uuuu
          B:u

          At first :

          A:4u-78+24 (before B give A 78 and also before A throw 24)
          B:u+78 (before giving 78 to A)



          Hi
          Thanks for the quick response.

          Can I use model to solve this as my ds is more comfortable with models?

          Thank u.


          At first A is 234 more than B ie. A-B=243 so
          4u-78+24-u-78=243
          3u=234+78-24+78=366
          u=122
          at first b=122+78 = 200

          check

          at first A have 434
          B give A 78 ; B left 122, A become 512 ; then A throw 24 left 488
          488 is 4 times of 122 - correct

                On the 24cm side, number of squares that can be fitted --> 24/6 = 4
                On the 15cm side, number of squares that can be fitted --> 15/6 = 2R3 --> 2

                Total number of squares that can be cut from the cardboard
                --> 4 x 2 = 8

                cheers.

                    Total 44 pupils, 4 did not pass both subjects
                    44 - 4 = 40 --> pass both subjects + pass only 1 subject

                    34 passed science --> 6 fail science --> these 6 passed english only

                    36 passed english --> 4 fail english --> these 4 passed science only

                    Number who passed both science and english = 40 - 6 - 4 = 30

                    cheers.
