Answer:

x+(x+4)=52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name the smaller number x.

The greater number would then be (x+4).

<em>The sum of two numbers means we are adding them together.</em>

<u>The equation we could then set up would be:</u>

x+(x+4)=52

<em>Now we can solve the equation to find the two numbers if needed.</em>

<u>Here is how:</u>

x+x+4=52

Combine like terms.

2x+4=52

Subtract 4 from both sides.

2x=48

Divide both sides by 2

x=24

The smaller number is 24.

24+4=28

The larger number is 28.

What number can go into 2470,121 and 45<br>​
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All of these numbers can be divided by 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13...

There is no whole number if you want to divide each number.

121 only goes into 1, 11, and 121. No other numbers have 11

45/2 = 22.5

45/3 = 15

45/5 = 9

2470/2 = 1235

2470/3 = 823.33333...

2470/5 = 494

121/2 = 60.5

121/3 = 40.33333...

121/5 = 24.2
