The answer of the above equation is 58.
Explaination:
Let the apartments be, A
the key be, K
& Let the painter be, P
So, formulating all the above equations in the above terms.
Equation (1); (A+K) + (A+K) + (A+K) = 39
Equation (2); K + K + K = 09
Equation (3); P + P + P = 15
Equation (4); A * P + (P+K) = ??
Now, initiating with equation (2);
K + K + K = 09
3K = 09
K = 03
Substitute the value of K in equation (1);
(A+K) + (A+K) + (A+K) = 39
(A+3) + (A+3) + (A+3) = 39
3A + 9 = 39
3A = 30
A = 10
Similarly, solve equation(3);
P + P + P = 15
3P = 15
P = 05
Now, substitute the values in final equation(4);
A * P + (P+K) = ??
= 10 * 5 + (5 + 3)
= 50 + 8
A * P + (P+K) = 58
