If she used all of her yarn, she'd have 24 pieces. If she wanted 1.25 left, she'd have ten less because 24 • .125 = 8, and 1/4 of eight = 2, and 2 + 8 = 10.
So she'd have 14 pieces.
If it hops 7 feet a second then it would hop 35 times in 5 seconds. 5 x 7 = 35.
Happy studying ^-^
Hey there!!
Let us take the first number as ' x '
According to the question
The second number exceeds the first number by 15
hence, the second number = x+15
The sum of both the numbers = 69
which means
x + x + 15 = 69
2x+15 = 69
Subtracting by 15 on both sides
2x + 15 - 15 = 69 - 15
2x = 54
dividing by 2 on both sides
x = 27
first number = 27
second number = 27 + 15
= 42
Hope my answer helps!
Start by putting two coins on each side of the scale. If one side is higher, then the light coin must be in that pair (use a second weighing to determine which of that pair is the lightest.)
If the initial weighing shows the two pairs to be even, discard those four and go to the three others. Put two of the coins on the scale - one on each side. If one side stays higher, that coin is your light one. If however they are equal, the final unweighed coin must be the lighter coin.
