Hey there,
Let's say 1 number is x,
1st = x
2nd = x+1
x+x+1 = 73
2x + 1 =73
2x = 73 - 1
2x = 72
x = 72 / 2
   = 36 
1st = 36 
2nd = 37

Hope this helps :))

Q. Friday night’s hockey game was attended by 180 students. This is about 60 % of the school’s population. What is the total pop
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The total population of the school is 300 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering, we are working with percentage we can use the equation:

y = %x.

To fill in the equation you can use what you already know, 60% = 180

180 = 0.60x

To solve this, you can then divide both sides of the equation by 0.60. This will then give you your answer, 300 = x.

For checking, you can do 180 = 0.60(300) which will result in 180 = 180.

The prime cost of an article was four times the value of material used. The cost of raw materials was increased in the ratio 3 :
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime cost = 4 times the value of material used

Former Prime cost = 540

Value of material = 540 / 4 = Rs. 135

Since ;

Prime cost = raw material + wages

540 = 135 + wages

Wages = 540 - 135

Wages = 405

Increase in raw material ; 3 : 4

New cost of raw materials = (4/3) * 135 = 180

Decrease in wage ; 4 : 5

New wage = 4/5 * 405 = 324

New prime cost :

180 + 324

= 504
