Answer:

   55 and 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the smaller part.

  s +(s +16) = 126

  2s = 110

  s = 55

  s+16 = 71

The two parts are 55 and 71.

_____

After you work a few of these, you recognize that the two numbers will be ...

  \dfrac{126}{2}\pm\dfrac{16}{2}\quad\text{half the sum plus or minus half the difference}

Write out the steps in solving 3/4 x 2 2/5
max2010maxim [7]
3/4 × 2 2/5

Turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction.

2 2/5 = (5 × 2) + 2 = 12

So, 2 2/5 = 12/5

So, our new question is : 3/4 × 12/5

Multiply the numerators (top numbers) with one another.

Numerators : (3 × 12) = 36

Multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) with one another.

Denominators : (4 × 5) = 20

So, our answer is 36/20

However, we need this to be a mixed number.

So, how many times does 20 go into 36? Once!

So, Multiply 20 with 1, and then subtract that number from 36! :)

20 × 1 = 20

36 - 20 = 16

So, our answer is :

1 16/20

Then, you simplify it once more.

Divide the numerator and denominator by 4.

16 ÷ 4 = 4

20 ÷ 4 = 5

So, our final answer is 1 4/5
