Question

Need to know what goes in the 4 boxes above, and the last box

Answer 1

Given that Owen moves half the number of boxes moved by Ariana.

So you can put 2 in the left side upper box, and 1 in the left side lower box.

Now, it is mentioned that Owen mobes 12 boxes. So the corresponding number of boxes moved by Arianna is to be obtained.

So you have to put 12 in the right side lower box. And a variable (say 'x') in the right side upper box.

The vaue of 'x' is to be calculated.

Cross multiply the terms,

`\begin{gathered} 1\cdot x=2\cdot12 \\ x=24 \end{gathered}`

Thus, the value of 'x' is 24.

Therefore, Arianna can move 24 boxes in the time when Owen moves 12 boxes.
