<span>let n+2=u
so, the equation became= [2/u]-[3/u]=5
=> [(2+3)/u]=5
=> 5/u=5
=> u=5/5=1
thus, u=1
we know u=n+2
so, n+2=1
=> n=1-2=-1
so, n=-1</span>
9 thirds, there a three thirds in each whole
Without using a calculator I would say the root is between 10 and 11
How I found the answer:
I know 10 * 10 = 100
I know 11 * 11 = 121
So the root of 100 = 10 and the root of 121 = 11 so that means the root of 108 is somewhere between 10 and 11, which the root of 108 = 10.3923
