Ms.Johnson gives twice as much daily homework as Mr. Beach. Mr.Beach gives out 10 minutes less than Mrs.Rodriguez. if Mrs.Rodriguez gives 35 minutes of homework,what is the total amount of homework given by the three teachers?
----
So do you just half it so,Mr.Beach gives 5,Mrs. Johnson gives 27? And you add it all together to get 87 minutes of homework? Am I right..
Mr. Beach: X min.
Ms. Johnson: 2x min.
Mrs. Rodriguez: (X+10) min.
x+10 = 35 min.
X = 25 min.
2x = 50 min.
Total = 35 + 25 + 50 = 110 Min.
To determine the total amount of homework given by the three teachers, we need to calculate the homework given by each teacher and then add them together.
We know that Mr. Beach gives out 10 minutes less homework than Mrs. Rodriguez, who gives 35 minutes of homework. So, Mr. Beach gives 35 - 10 = 25 minutes of homework.
Next, we are told that Mrs. Johnson gives twice as much daily homework as Mr. Beach. Since Mr. Beach gives 25 minutes of homework, Mrs. Johnson gives 2 * 25 = 50 minutes of homework.
Finally, to find the total amount of homework given by the three teachers, we add up the homework given by each of them: 25 + 35 + 50 = 110 minutes.
So, the total amount of homework given by the three teachers is 110 minutes, not 87 minutes.
