Question

if 1 AA = 2 BB and 1 BB = 3 CC how many AA’s are equal 36 CC’s ? HINT: How many BB’s are equal to 36 CC’sa. 12b. 30c. 36d. 72e. 108

Answer 1

Answer:the number of AA’s that are equal 36 CC’s is 6

the number of BB’s that are equal 36 CC’s is 12

Explanation:

if 1 AA = 2 BB and 1 BB = 3 CC

This means that

1 AA = 2 BB = 2 × 3 CC

1 AA = 6 CC

Therefore, the number of AA’s that are equal 36 CC’s would be

36/6 = 6 AA’s.

1 BB = 3 CC

Therefore, the number of BB’s that are equal 36 CC’s would be

36/3 = 12

Answer 2

36 CC's = 12 BB's = 6 AA's

Explanation:

3 CC's are worth 1 BB.

There are 36 CC's, which is the same as 36/3 = 12 BB's.

Each AA is worth 2BBs. So 12 BB's are 12/2 = AA's.

The options for the answer are not consistent with the answer, however.

36 CC's = 12 BB's = 6 AA's
