Mike weighs 24 more pounds than Mark. Together, they weigh 250 pounds. How many do they each weigh?

1 answer:

6 0

To get your answer, follow my method :

First you take away 24 from 250=226
Then you half 226=113 which is Mark's weight
As Mike weights 24 pounds more that Mark, you have to add 24 back=137
So your answer is :
Mark weights 113 pounds and Mike weights 137 pounds.

Six times the number of cattle less 87 is 999

AveGali [126]

You have to translate the statement into a mathematical expression...

Six times the number of cattle, if we let c be the number of cattle is:

6c

Less 87 means to subtract 87 so

6c-87

is 999 means

=999

so all together we have:

6c-87=999 now we need to isolate the variable by itself on one side of the equal sign....

6c-87=999 add 87 to both sides

6c=1086 divide both sides by 6

c=181

So there are 181 cattle.
