Question

Last week, Kevin studied 12 more hours than Jason. If they studied
for a combined total of 54 hours, how many hours did Jason study for last
week?

Answer 1

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of hours both Kevin and Jason studied                     =   54

No. of hours Kevin studied more than Jason                            =   12

Therefore No. of hours Jason studied                                       =   54-12

 

                                                54

                                              - 1 2

                                            -----------

                                                4 2

⇒ Here, Kevin studied 12 hours more.

⇒ So, Jason studied 27 - 12 hours.

⇒ 15 hours.
