Answer: 12 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
the data we have is:
Mei Su had 80 coins.
She gave the coins to her friends, in such a way that every friend got a different number of coins, then we have that:
The maximum number of friends that could have coins is when:
friend 1 got 1 coin
friend 2 got 2 coins
friend 3 got 3 coins
friend N got N coins
in such a way that:
(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + N) ≥ 79
I use 79 because "she gave most of the coins", not all.
We want to find the maximum possible N.
Then let's calculate:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55
now we are close, lets add by one number:
55 + 11 = 66
66 + 12 = 78
now, we can not add more because we will have a number larger than 80.
Then we have N = 12
This means that the maximum number of friends is 12.
Laugh out loud a pun isn't it
Q - 7 5/6 = 6 1/2
q = 6 1/2 + 7 5/6
q = 13/2 + 47/6 / multiply 13/2 by 3
q = 39/6 + 47/6
q = 86/6

Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
WYXV is quadrilateral.
the reason are the undefined angles at W and V (they are equal, but not necessarily 90°, so the shape could shrink or extend between W and V)
ABCD is a rectangle.
AB and CD are parallel and equally long. and C is 90°.
that means then that the other angles must be 90° too, or either the parallel or equally long criteria would be violated.
PQSR is a parallelogram.
PQ and RS are parallel and equally long.
that means that PR and QS must also be parallel and equally long. we just don't know the angles, they could be anything. and therefore this is not a rectangle but a more generic parallelogram.
