Answer:
142
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 2/3=x/24=84/y, we first find x:
2/3=x/24. We can cross multiply, so the equation is 3x=48;
x=16.
Now we have:
2/3=16/24=84/y
We find y by doing the same:
16/24=84/y
Cross multiply: 16y=24*84
16y=2016
y=126
Now we add y and x:
16+126
=142
Hope this helps!
