Answer:

  the numbers are 7 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the smaller to the sum of numbers, you have the sum of the greater and twice the smaller. That is ...

  18 + smaller = 25

  smaller = 25 -18 = 7

  larger = 18 -7 = 11

The two numbers are 7 and 11.

_____

If you like, you can write two equations. Let x and y represent the smaller and larger numbers, respectively.

  x + y = 18

  2x + y = 25

Subtract the first equation from the second:

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = (25) -(18)

  x = 7

  y = 18-x = 18-7 = 11

The numbers are 7 and 11.

A school is preparing fruit baskets for a local nursing home. There are 162 apples, 108 oranges, and 180 bananas. If the baskets
kari74 [83]

To solve this exercise, we must calculate the Maximum Common Divisor (M.C.D.), which is the greatest common divisor of 62,108 and 180. We apply factor decomposition, and we obtain:

 162= (3^4)(2)

 108= (2^2)(3^3)

 180= (2^2)(3^2)(5)

 We choose the common numbers with their lowest exponent:

 M.C.D.= (2)(3^2)

 M.C.D.= 2x9

 M.C.D.= 18

 The greatest number of baskets that can be made is: 18 baskets

 To know how many apples, oranges and bananas are in each basket, we must divide the greatest number of them that can be made between the total amount of apples, oranges and bananas, as shown below:

 162/18= 9 apples

 108/18= 6 oranges

 180/18= 10 bananas

 So, there are 9 apples, 6 oranges and 10 bananas in each basket.
