5 0

Answer:

<h2>149 times.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number we are looking for.

The we have to solve this equation:

1999 - 7n = 1701 - 5n

⇔ 1999 - 1701 = 7n - 5n

⇔ 298 = 2 n

⇔ n = 298/2

⇔ n = 149

<u><em>Verification</em></u> :

1 999 - 7×149 = 956

1 701 - 5×149 = 956

Some number was divided into 104.13. This quotient was multiplied by 4, after which the resulting product was added to 5. Given
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The initial number is <u>-1218.321</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial number be 'x'.

The number 'x' is divided into 104.13.

So, we divide the number 'x' by 104.13. This gives,

\dfrac{x}{104.13}

Now, the quotient is multiplied by 4. So, this means we need to multiply 4 to the fraction above. This gives,

\dfrac{x}{104.13}\times 4\\\\\frac{4x}{104.13}

Now, 5 is added to the result. This gives,

\frac{4x}{104.13}+5

Now, as per question:

\frac{4x}{104.13}+5=-41.8

Now, solving for 'x', we add -5 both sides. This gives,

\frac{4x}{104.13}+5-5=-41.8-5\\\\\frac{4x}{104.13}=-46.8\\\\4x=-46.8\times 104.13\\\\4x=-4873.284\\\\x=\frac{-4873.284}{4}=-1218.321

Therefore, the initial number is -1218.321.
