A digit is a number in one of the places, so for example the number 54 has two digits; a tens place digit (5) and a ones place digit (4).
Say the mystery number is a two digit number = xy
* that's not x times y but two side by side digits.
Info given:
<span>the sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 6
x + y = 6 </span>
<span>if the digits are reversed, yx the difference between the new number and the original number is 18.
**To obtain the number from digits you must multiply by the place and add the digits up. (Example: 54 = 10(5) + 1(4))
Original number = 10x + y
Reversed/New number = 10y + x
Difference:
10y + x - (10x + y) = 18
9y - 9x = 18
9(y - x) = 18
y - x = 18/9
y - x = 2
Now we have two equations in two variables
</span>y - x = 2
<span>x + y = 6
Re-write one in terms of one variable for substitution.
y = 2 + x
sub in to the other equation to combine them.
x + (2 + x) = 6
2x + 2 = 6
2x = 6 - 2
2x = 4
x = 2
That's the tens digit for the original number. Plug this value into either of the equations to obtain y, the ones digit.
2 + y = 6
y = 4
number "xy" = 24

Answer:
133.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
120= 120/90
the word OF = multiplication
120/90 x 100/100=133.33/100
133.33/100=133.33%
1. C
2. 3, because I used a proportion table
Given:
nine 5 pound bags
distributed into 10-ounce bags
1 pound = 16 ounces
9 x 5 pounds = 45 pounds
45 pounds * 16 ounces/lbs = 45 * 16 oz = 720 ounces
720 ounces / 10 ounce bags = 720/10 = 72 bags.
The workers at the food pantry will be able to make 72 bags.
