The smallest number of pens he can buy is 4 packages
Answer:
a = 3, b = -1, c = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three numbers be a, b and c.
Equation 1: a + b + c = 12
Equation 2: a + 2b + 3c = 31
Equation 3: 9b + c = 1
Equation 2 - Equation 1:
Equation 4: b + 2c = 19
Equation 3 times by the number 2
Equation 5: 18b + 2c = 2
Equation 5 - Equation 4
17b = -17
b = -1
Substitute into Equation 4:
2c - 1 = 19
2c = 20
c = 10
Substitute into Equation 1:
a + b + c = 12
a - 1 + 10 = 12
a = 3
A . 1/15 equals 0.66
b. 5/12 equals 0.4166
c. 1/3 equals 0.333
d. 5/12 equals 4.6 as a round number
8). 0.4 equals 4/10 equals 2/5
9) 7.32 equals 7 3/2
10) 0.2 equals 2/10 equals 1/5
Hope this helps:)
