Answer:
x = 181 and y = 97
Step-by-step explanation:
let called the first number is x
the second number would be called y
We are given that:
x + y = 278 (1)
x = y + 84 (2)
Let change x in (2) into (1):
y + 84 + y = 278
2y + 84 = 278
Subtract 84 from both side, we got:
2y + 84 - 84 = 278 - 84
2y + 0 = 194
Divide both side by 2, we got:
2y / 2 = 194 / 2
y = 97
Because y = 97 and x + y = 278 so x would equal:
x + 97 = 278
Subtract 97 from both side, we got:
x + 97 - 97 = 278 - 97
x + 0 = 181
x = 181 and y = 97
Hope this helped :3
32 is the answer to the problem
John's. Find the first common multiple of both denominators, in this case it's going to be ten, then the number you had to multiply to change these numbers to the common multiply you do to the numerators. so it works out like so:
Deena has a bottle of 4/10
John has a bottle of 25/10 or 2 1/2 (simplified)
Among all these no., see the first no. that lies before or left side of decimal point, here... 2 is common so next check the no. After decimal...
2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2 is considered as 2.0 and then we have 2.0...
Let's not take 2.0s and let's take 2.2 and 2.4 which is greater than 2.0.
Next see the second no. That comes after decimal
We have 2.24 and 2.4 which can be taken as 2.40... The no.s after decimal,
24 is greater than 40 so 2.4 is greater...
Luckly i still have my notes and the answer was about 3.1%. I hope this helped.
