Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the unknown variable as "x".

Since they are consecutive even numbers, we add 2 for each one.

=> x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 168

=> 3x + 6 = 168

=> 3x + 6 - 6 = 168 - 6

=> 3x = 162

=> 3x/3 = 162/3

=> x = 54

So, the smallest number from those 3 consecutive numbers is 54.

Use Pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse² = base² + altitude²

so, im t trying to find the original price and sale price of a book for example and the amount of discount is 2.80 dollars and t
aliya0001 [1]

Okay, so since the discount is 60% of the price and it comes out to $2.8, we are going to form the following expression, where x is the original price.

60% of x = 2.8

Simply means: 60/100 * x = 2.8

You solve for x, which comes out to $4, which is your original price.
