Given number is 78/14.
We have to find two whole numbers between which given number 78/14 lies.
Let's convert that into mixed fraction.
To do that we divide 78 by 14 to find the quotient.
We see that 14 goes 5 times into 78 and leaves remainder of 8.
So we can rewrite 78/14 as 
.
means little more than 5 but less than 6.
So required two whole numbers are 5 and 6.
Let the smaller number be x
let the larger number be y
According to Question-
x + y = 2y - 4
→ x - y = -4 ...1
if larger number is decreased by 1/3 we get equation -
x + y/3 = -20
→ 3x + y = -60 ...2
adding equation 1 and 2, we get:
4x = -64
→ x = -16
→ y = -60 - 3(-16)
→ y = -60 + 48
→ y = -12
Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
-x/3 = 2
Multiply each side by -3 to isolate x
-x/3 * -3= 2*-3
x = -6
The average speed of the horse is 25.0m/s
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
Speed is the rate of change of distance over time
The given parameters are:
- Distance (d) = 800 meters
- Time (t) = 32.0 seconds
The average speed of the horse is then calculated as:
This gives
Evaluate the quotient
Hence, the average speed of the horse is 25.0m/s
