  • Paulo has R$80.00 and Carlos has 2/3of that amount. How many Carlos has? How many do the two have together?

We are given

Paulo has R$ 80.00 and Carlos has 2/3 of that amount.

We are asked to find, how much Carlos owns and how much they have together.

Explanation :-

At first, we just need to multiply 80by 2, and then we will divide the value by 3, so we find that:


\qquad
\bf \longrightarrow 80 * 2 = 160


\qquad
\bf \longrightarrow (160)/(3) = 53.3

Therefore, we find that Carlos has 53.3 R$.

Now to find out how much they have together. We have to add Paul's amount to Carlos' amount for that.


\qquad
\bf \longrightarrow 53.3 +80 =133.3

Henceforth, they both have 133.3 R$. together.
