Correlation: an increase in the birth rate and a decrease in the death rate
no relationship: an increase in the urban bird population and in increase in airplane accidents
causation: a decrease in deaths related to heart disease and an increase in air travel
That'd be 32 with no remainder.
Answer: 334
Step-by-step explanation:
6 consecutive numbers can be written as:
n, n+1, n+2, n + 3, n + 4, n + 5,
The addition of those 6 numbers is:
n + n+1 + n+2 + n + 3 + n + 4 + n + 5
6n + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 6n + 15
Let's find the maximum n possible:
6n + 15 = 2020
6n = 2020 - 15 = 2005
n = 2005/6 = 334.16
The fact that n is a rational number means that 2020 is can not be constructed by adding six consecutive numbers, but we know that with n = 334 we can find a number that is smaller than 2020, and with n = 335 we can found a number bigger than 2020.
So with n = 334 we can find one smaller.
6*334 + 15 = 2019
and we can do this for all the values of n between 1 and 334, this means that we have 334 numbers less than 2020 that can be written as a sum of six consecutive positive numbers.
