The coal

The coal stock would be enough to heat a larger room for 12 weeks and a smaller one for 18 weeks. It was heated for four weeks in both rooms, then only in a smaller one. How long was the coal stock enough?

Correct answer:

x =  12

Step-by-step explanation:

z = 12a z = 18b z  4a 4b = b x  z  4(z/12)4 (z/18) = (z/18) (x4)  14 (1/12)4 (1/18)=1/18 (x4)  2x=24  x=224=12  x=12
