Answer:
[tex]B = \frac{3}{2} * 21,356[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Represent Jimmy with J and Bob with B
[tex]J = 21,356[/tex]
[tex]B = 1\frac{1}{2} * J[/tex]
Required
Determine the expression for B
[tex]B = 1\frac{1}{2} * J[/tex]
Substitute 21,356 for J
[tex]B = 1\frac{1}{2} * 21,356[/tex]
Convert Mixed fraction to improper
[tex]B = \frac{3}{2} * 21,356[/tex]
The above is an expression for B
Solving further, we have
[tex]B = \frac{3 * 21,356}{2}[/tex]
[tex]B = \frac{64068}{2}[/tex]
[tex]B = 32034[/tex]
