Answer:
23 marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of children = 10
Number of marbles = 180
Since Betsy gets the most and no 2 children gets the same number of marbles
The least number of marbles Betsy could get will be x ; with the other 9 children receiving 1 less each
That is :
Betsy = x
9th child = x - 1
8th child = x - 2,... 1st child = x - 9
Hence,
(x + x - 1 + x - 2 + x - 3 + x - 4 + x - 5 + x - 6 + x - 7 + x - 8 + x - 9) = 180
10x - 45 = 180
10x = 180 + 45
x = 225 / 10
x = 22.5
x = 23
Hence, the least Betsy could get is 23 marbles
Answer:
The answer all together would be 5 minus n.
Step-by-step explanation:
a negative and a positive equals a positive so -1/2 + 1 1/2 would equal 2 and 2 + 3 equals 5. Then, the remaining numbers are 5 and n. The final answer is 5 minus n because n is unknown.
the answer is three look where it says 4-1 is 3
