7. The Quotient

Mathematics
1 answer:
nasty-shy [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<h3>The number is 500</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

The quotient of a number divided by five is written as

\frac{x}{5}

the number decreased by 400 is written as

x - 400

Equate the two expressions

We have

\frac{x}{5}  = x - 400

Multiply through by 5

That's

x = 5x - 2000

x - 5x = - 2000

- 4x = - 2000

Divide both sides by - 4

x = 500

Hope this helps you

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Maria is 10, Floyd is 8, and Karen is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Having said that Maria's age was the smallest two-digit number, that's ten. (10). If Floyd is 2 years younger then 10-2=8. Karen is 3 years younger, so she would be 8-3=5.
