Let r, g and b represent red, green and blue.
r+g+b = 74
r=g-1
b=r+g
Again, r+g+b = 74. Let's substitutte r+g for b: r+g+(r+g) = 74.
Next, let's eliminate r. Use r=g-1. Then g-1 + g + g-1 + g = 74
Combining the g terms, 4g - 2 = 74 => 4g = 76 => g = 19
Recall that r=g-1
and
b=r+g
Find r. If r=g-1, and g=19, then r = 19-1=18
Find b: b = r+g = 18+19=37
So there are 37 blue candies, 18 red candies and 19 green candies.
Check: 37+18+19=74 ??? Yes.

<h3>☂︎ Answer :- </h3>
<h3>☂︎ Solution :- </h3>
- LCM of 5 , 18 , 25 and 27 = 2 × 3³ × 5²
- 2 and 3 have odd powers . To get a perfect square, we need to make the powers of 2 and 3 even . The powers of 5 is already even .
In other words , the LCM of 5 , 18 , 25 and 27 can be made a perfect square if it is multiplied by 2 × 3 .
The least perfect square greater that the LCM ,
☞︎︎︎ 2 × 3³ × 5² × 2 × 3
☞︎︎︎ 2² × 3⁴ × 5²
☞︎︎︎ 4 × 81 × 85
☞︎︎︎ 100 × 81
☞︎︎︎ 8100
8100 is the least perfect square which is exactly divisible by each of the numbers 5 , 18 , 25 , 27 .
(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3
6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5
The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.
