Answer:
58
Step-by-step explanation:
58/3 gives a remainder of 1
58/4 gives a remainder of 2
58/5 gives a remainder of 3
The greatest number of tables that can be made is; 24 tables
<h3>Limiting Resources</h3>
To determine the limiting factor;
- We must divide the number of all factors available by 72.
Hence, it goes that;
- Only, 48/72= 0.66 balloons per chair
- Only 24/72 = 0.33 flowers per chair
- Only 32/72 = 0.44 candles per chair
However, it follows from the question that; the same number of centerpieces be used on each table.
Hence, the ratio of flowers per chair is lowest and hence, 72×0.33 flowers are used, 24 tables can therefore be set up.

Answer:
2x-5= -20
move -5 to the other side
sign changes from -5 to 5
2x-5+5= -20+5
2x= -15
divide by 2 for both sides
2x/2= -15/2
cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x
x= -15/2
Answer:
n = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for n:
n + 2 = 4 n + 17
Hint: | Move terms with n to the left hand side.
Subtract 4 n from both sides:
(n - 4 n) + 2 = (4 n - 4 n) + 17
Hint: | Combine like terms in n - 4 n.
n - 4 n = -3 n:
-3 n + 2 = (4 n - 4 n) + 17
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
4 n - 4 n = 0:
2 - 3 n = 17
Hint: | Isolate terms with n to the left hand side.
Subtract 2 from both sides:
(2 - 2) - 3 n = 17 - 2
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
2 - 2 = 0:
-3 n = 17 - 2
Hint: | Evaluate 17 - 2.
17 - 2 = 15:
-3 n = 15
Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Divide both sides of -3 n = 15 by -3:
(-3 n)/(-3) = 15/(-3)
Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.
(-3)/(-3) = 1:
n = 15/(-3)
Hint: | Reduce 15/(-3) to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 15 and -3.
The gcd of 15 and -3 is 3, so 15/(-3) = (3×5)/(3 (-1)) = 3/3×5/(-1) = 5/(-1):
n = 5/(-1)
Hint: | Simplify the sign of 5/(-1).
Multiply numerator and denominator of 5/(-1) by -1:
Answer: n = -5
