Question 1109606: In country A, about five times as many cars are manufactured per day than in country B. If the total number of these cars manufactured per day is 39,642, find the number manufactured in country B and the number manufactured in country A. Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let b be the amount of cars produced by country B, and 5b the amount by country A. Then:
b+5b=39642
6b=39642
b=6607
5b=33035
