The concept to do this question is to break the number into its factors and then make different combination.

The given number has just two factors

The factors of 21 are 3 & 7.

Which means

21 = 3 × 7.

So

Either we can have 7 shelves with 3 mugs on each shelf.

Or

We can have 3 shelves with 7 mugs on each shelf.

This way as 21 is divisible by 3 & 7. No mugs shall be left out.

So We have two solutions to this.

7 shelves with 3 mugs on each shelf.

3 shelves with 7 mugs on each shelf.

rjkz [21]

Answer: 11 is the required number that always divides such differences for the following types of numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take any 3 - digit number, say, 325

On reversing its digit it becomes, 523

On subtracting the smaller of the two numbers from the larger,523-325\\\\=198

we can see that 198 is an even number.

take another number say, 629

On reversing its digit, it becomes = 926

On subtracting , we get that

926-629=297

But 297 is not an even number.

But there is one common in both the cases is that both the differences are divisible by 11.

Hence, 11 is the required number that always divides such differences for the following types of numbers.

A salesperson earns a salary of $700 per month plus 2% of the sales. Which inequality correctly represents the total sales if th
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

C. x\geq 55000

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let x be the total monthly sales.

We have been given that a salesperson earns a salary of $700 per month plus 2% of the sales. The salesperson want to have a monthly income of at least $1800.  

This means that 700 plus 2% of total monthly sales should be greater than or equal to 1800. We can represent this information in an equation as:

700+(\frac{2}{100})x\geq 1800

700+0.02x\geq 1800

Let us solve our inequality to find the monthly sales (x).

Subtract 700 from both sides of our inequality.

700-700+0.02x\geq 1800-700

0.02x\geq 1100

Divide both sides of inequality by 0.02.

\frac{0.02x}{0.02}\geq \frac{1100}{0.02}

x\geq \frac{1100}{0.02}

x\geq 55000

Therefore, the total monthly sales must be greater than or equal to 55,000 and option C is the correct choice.
