Let the two numbers be represented by X and Y. Then we get the following SYSTEM of equations:
x + y = 46 \\ x - y = 16

We can subtract both formulas from each other to eliminate x.
x - x + y - - y = 46 - 16
2y = 30
Now, divide both sides by 2
y = 15

Given that X + Y = 46
x + 15 = 46
Subtract 15 from both sides
x = 31

Hence, X = 31 and Y = 15

Leda makes 73 oatmeal muffins for a bake sale. She accidentally drops five of them and throws them away. She puts as many of the
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

3 oatmeal muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the 5 muffins she dropped from the total:

73 - 5

= 68

Then, divide this by 13:

68/13

= 5.23

We need a whole number of muffins in each container, so round this down to 5.

This means that there can be 5 muffins in each of the 13 containers.

Find how many will be leftover:

5(13)

= 65

68 - 65

= 3

So, there will be 3 oatmeal muffins left
