15 = 5 + 8d - 12
15 = 8d - 7
15 + 7 = 8d
22 = 8d
d = 2.75
Answer:
As she ate 1/10 of cake, we need to know how many cake remains after it, so we can substract:
1 - 1/10 = 10/10 - 1/10 = 9/10
Then, we need to divide the 9/10 into 3 portions:
(9/10) / 3 = 9/30 = 3/10
So we know the fractions would be 3/10 each on this situation..
the two consecutive even integers are:
x
x+2
x+x+2=2
2x+2=2
2x=0
x=0
x+2=2
