Problema Solution
Two copy machines are used to complete a 2773 coby job. If one machine is 35% faster than the other, how many copies are made by each machine?
Answer provided by our tutors
let
x = the number of copies the one machine makes
1.35x = the number of copies that the faster machine will make
altogether that make 2773 copies:
x + 1.35x = 2773
by solving we find:
x = 1,180 copies

1.35x = 1,593 copies
there are 1,180 copies made by the slower machine and 1,593 copies made by the faster machine.
