Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues are:

1. x – y = 16         (so x is the larger number)

2. y / x = 5 / 7

 

rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:

y = (5/7) x

 

combining 1 and 2:

x – (5/7) x = 16

(2/7) x = 16

x = 56

 

y = (5/7) x = 40

 

So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

Mila [183]

Answer:

9 hours and 45 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

First, this is in army time. (Just so you know!) Also, it goes to 24 hours.

What you would do is add 45 mins to get to a single hour: so 20:15 + 45 = 21:00, then add 3 to get to 24:00 or 12:00 am, then add 6 more hours to get to 6:00 hours. So the final answer is 9 hours and 45 mins
