The answer to this question would be: p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58
In this question, p q r is a prime number. Most of the prime number is an odd number. If p q r all odd number, it wouldn't be possible to get 73 since
odd x odd + odd= odd + odd = even
Since 73 is an odd number, it is clear that one of the p q r needs to be an even number.
There is only one odd prime number which is 2. If you put 2 in the r the result would be:
pq+2= 73
pq= 71
There will be no solution for pq since 71 is prime number. That mean 2 must be either p or q. Let say that 2 is p, then the equation would be: 2q + r= 73
The least possible value of p+q+r would be achieved by founding the highest q since its coefficient is 2 times r. Maximum q would be 73/2= 36.5 so you can try backward from that. Since q= 31, q=29, q=23 and q=19 wouldn't result in a prime number r, the least result would be q=17
r= 73-2q
r= 73- 2(17)
r= 73-34=39
p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58
Answer:
132
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 28/32 but converted its 7/8. My work is kinda messy sorry. But this is my work.
In words:
Three sandwiches, each costing $5.25, equals 1/3 of Cassie's total money
We can write the formula:
(5.25*3)=1/3x
Now solve:
15.75=1/3x
3(15.75)=x
x=$47.25
Hope this helps!!
