1) Write out what you know
       Blue: 5/8
       Green: 5/9 (of 3/8 because it is the remaining parts) so 5/24
       Red: 1 - (5/8 + 5/24) = 1/6
2) Find the total amount of people
       You know that 1/6 of the population is 48, so the total population is 288 (48×6)
3) Multiply the total population by the fractions to get the number of votes
       Blue: 288 × 5/8 = 180 votes
       Green: 288 × 5/24 = 60 votes

Check: 180 + 60 + 48 = 288 votes

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 75. what is the smallest of these numbers,n?
vlabodo [156]
Let <em>x</em> equal the lowest of the 3 consecutive odd integers:
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 75
Combine like terms:
3x + 6 = 75
       -6    -6
3x = 69
/3      /3
<u><em>x = 23</em></u>
The lowest integer is 23. The 3 integers, therefore, are 23, 25, and 27.
Hope this helps!
