X= 1st integer
x+2= 2nd integer
x+4= 3rd integer
Add the integers together
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)= 279
combine like terms
3x + 6= 279
subtract 6 from both sides
3x= 273
divide both sides by 3
x= 91 first integer
Substitute x=91 to find 2nd & 3rd integers
2nd Integer
=x+2
=91+2
=93
3rd Integer
=x+4
=91+4
=95
ANSWER: The three test scores are 91, 93 and 95.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
(4.2x100).(5.7x100) = 239.400
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to determine the product of (4.2x100).(5.7x100).
We know that when two numbers are multiplied together, the product is the same regardless of the order of the multiplicands. For that reason, we can multiply all together, and the result will be the same regardless of the order of the multiplicands:
Then:
(4.2x100).(5.7x100) = 4.2x100x5.7x100 = 420x570= 239.400
It is important to go through details that are provided in the question. Based on those details the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number of lions at the zoo = x
Number of male lions in the zoo = 2
Then
(1/6) * x = 2
x/6 = 2
x = 2 * 6
= 12
So there are a total of 12 lions in the zoo. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. Using this method, it will be possible for you to do similar problems in future without requiring any help from outside. Only be careful about the calculation part.
