Answer:

The answer is: The largest number is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) = (n + 4) + (n + 5) + (n + 6)

4n + 6 = 3n + 15

n = 9

Proof:

9 + 10 + 11 + 12 = 19 + 23 = 42

13 + 14 + 15 = 27 + 15 = 42

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!  :-)

n, n+1, n+2 , n+3

Given:

n + n + 1 + n + 2 + n + 3 = n + 4 + n + 5 + n + 6

4n + 6 = 3n + 15

n = 9

Largest number = n+6 = 15

Michael's bill at a restaurant was $46.32. He wants to leave a 17% tip. What will the new total be,including the tip?
Novosadov [1.4K]
$7.87+$46.32=$54.19.  If you multiply 46.32 by 0.17, 17%, it is 7.87 so you just add that to the original bill, 46.32

You are planning on using circles to compare the populations of California 37,691,000, Texas 25,675,000, and New York 19,465,000
Illusion [34]
The question above may be answered through the concept of ratio and proportion. The ratio between the population of a certain city and the radius of the circle used should be proportional. Mathematically, 
                             19465000/5 = 37691000/x₁ = 25,675,000/x₂
The values of x₁ and x₂ are 9.7 cm and 6.6 cm, respectively.
