Complete question :

Ann, Brian and Carol share the cost of a car. Ann pays 2/5 of the cost, Brian pays 1/3 and Carol pays the rest.

a) What fraction of the cost does Carol pay?

b) Ann pays $1600 more than Brian. Find the total cost of the car.

4/ 15

8000

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

Fraction carol paid :

Total fraction = 1/1

Fraction paid by Ann and Brian = (2/5 +1/3)

(2/5 + 1/3) = (6 + 5) / 15 = 11/15

1 - 11/ 15 = 4/ 15

Ann = 2/5 ; Brian pays 1/3

Ann pay 1600 more than Brian

2/5 - 1/3 = (6 - 5) = 1/5

1/5 of amount = 1600

If :

1/5 = 1600

1 = x

1/5x = 1600

x = 1600 ÷1/5

Total amount = 8000

40% off the regular price is the correct answer.
