Let's begin by listing the first few multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 38, 40, 44. So, between 1 and 37 there are 9 such multiples: {4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36}. Note that 4 divided into 36 is 9.
Let's experiment by modifying the given problem a bit, for the purpose of discovering any pattern that may exist:
<span>How many multiples of 4 are there in {n; 37< n <101}? We could list and then count them: {40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100}; there are 16 such multiples in that particular interval. Try subtracting 40 from 100; we get 60. Dividing 60 by 4, we get 15, which is 1 less than 16. So it seems that if we subtract 40 from 1000 and divide the result by 4, and then add 1, we get the number of multiples of 4 between 37 and 1001:
1000
-40
-------
960
Dividing this by 4, we get 240. Adding 1, we get 241.
Finally, subtract 9 from 241: We get 232.
There are 232 multiples of 4 between 37 and 1001.
Can you think of a more straightforward method of determining this number? </span>
Answer:
He started with 180.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 90 is 50% of what he started with, then the other 50% is 90
Answer:
5.7 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of 2 liters, 5 deciliters of lemon juice and 3 liters, 2 deciliters of water will be given as
2+3=5 liters
5+2=7 deciliters
Therefore, we get 5 liters, 7 deciliters of lemonade
Conversion
10 deciliters equal to 1 liter hence 7 deciliter will be 7/10=0.7 liters
5+0.7=5.7 liters
Is there any choices because i got 2 solutions
