110 = 5x + 3y (yet x + y = 30)
Therefore the only explanation would 10 kids bought lunch and 20 packed because....
10 + 20 = 30 AND 5 * 10 = 50 3 * 20 = 60 60 + 50 = 110
2x - 3(x-1) = -1
2x -3x + 3 = -1
-1x + 3 = -1
-1x = -4
x = 4
y = 4 - 1
y = 3
Answer is x=31
125+132+72+x=360
329+x=360
x=31
A multiple is a number that can be gotten from multiplying a number by any number. For example, a multiple of 3 would have to be something that you can count by threes to get to. The same applies to 10, if you count by tens, any of those numbers that you get while counting by tens would be a multiple of 10.
