What other compatible numbers could you use for 428 and 286

Mathematics
1 answer:
kaheart [24]2 years ago
4 0
How about raising 286 up by 14 to 300 and compensating by lowering 428 by the same 14 Since I know that 14 + 14 is 28  then 28-14 is 14
So 428 - 14 = 414
So now I have 414 + 300 which I can do mentally - the answer is 714 and is also the answer to the original problem 428 + 286

Compensation works very well - bring one number up or down to a rounded number and compensate by doing the opposite to the other  - instead of 199 + 457 - try 200 + 456
Same answer and because one of the numbers is nicely rounded, it is easy to add the other. 

One more:  207 + 182  becomes 200 + 189 =389   I lowered one by 7 and raised the other one by the same 7.

If m FDG = 50°, what is m FEG?<br><br> 75°<br> 50°<br> 100°<br> 25°<br><br> Thank you!
denpristay [2]
The measure of the angle FEG is probably the same as the measure of the angle FDG. There is nothing saying that EF is parallel to DG, but if so, the measure of the angle FEG is also 50º.
When the diagonals of a trapezium with two parallel bases inside of a circle are drawn, they make the same angle measure with those bases.
