The answer is: 1&9 + 11 = 30

Why?

Well, there is actually no real solution to this problem, since this question is asking us to add up 3 numbers so that the sum is 30.

That is impossible. Adding three odd numbers can only result in another odd number. An odd number is just an even number + 1. So adding three odd numbers is simply adding 3 even numbers + 3 1s. 3 even numbers would equal an even number, + 3 would turn it into an odd number.

The question is asking us to add up three numbers from a list, which only includes odd numbers, so that the sum is 30, an even number, therefore there is no possible solution.

A loophole to this question is to 'combine' 2 numbers from the list, in this case, 1 and 9, and add them up with another number, 11. 19 + 11 = 30. Three numbers were used and they were from the list provided.

Using this method, here are all possible solutions:

1&5 + 15
1&7 + 13
1&9 + 11
15 + 1&5
13 + 1&7
11 + 1&9

How do you solve st+3t=6
bonufazy [111]
You will factor out the common factor of t if you are solving for t. you will then divide both sides by (s+3) to make t the subject of the formula. for this question you can only get t in terms of s.
so:
st+3t=6
t(s+3)/(s+3)=6/(s+3)
t=6/(s+3)

if you are required to solve for s then you are going to subtract 3t from both sides. you can factorise 6-3t .you will then divide both sides by t to isolate s.for this question you can only get s in terms of t.so:

st+3t-3t=6-3t
st/t=2(3-t)/t
s=2(3-t)/t
