Answer:

2 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 3 2/5

We need to borrow from the 6

5 + 1  - 3 2/5

Change to 1 so it has a common denominator

5 + 5/5 - 3 2/5

I like to write them vertically

 5 5/5

-3  2/5

Answer:

13/5, or 2 3/5 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 5/5 = 1

First, change the whole numbers to improper fractions:

6 = 6 x 5/5 = 30/5

3 2/5 = (3 x 5 + 2) = 15 + 2 = 17/5

Subtract: 30/5 - 17/5 = 13/5

13/5, or 2 3/5 is your answer.

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69. What are the three numbers?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

21, 23, 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so this one may seem a little tricky, so I'll try to explain it as best as I can. :)

So because they are consecutive odd numbers, that means they are odd numbers that are one after the other. This means each number is 2 apart from the next. So by using this, we know that there is a difference of 6 between the highest and lowest number. Now let's try and make an equation:

3o + 6 = 69

Now in order to get O by itself we have to subtract 6 from both sides:

3o = 63

Now we just have to divide by three on both sides:

o = 21

So now, we know that the lowest number is 21, but we have to add 2 to get 23, and then another 2 to get 25.

Hope this helps :)
