If 120% of a is equal to 80% of b, then what is the value of a+b in terms of a and b?

Answer

As per the statement:

If 120% of a is equal to 80% of b.

"120% of a" means

"80% of b" means

then;

Multiply both sides by 100 we get;

Divide both sides by 80 we have;

Simplify:

       .....[1]

or

   ......[2]

We have to find the value of a+b in terms of a and b:

Substitute the values of [1] we have;

Combine like terms;

Now, find the value of a+b in terms of b;

Substitute equation [2] we have;

Combine like terms;

Therefore, the value of a+b in terms of a and b are;

1,589.63 in.^3
