Answer:
set middle number=x
then left side number=x-1
and right side number=x+1
(x-1)+x+(x+1)＝30
3x=30
x=10
x-1=9
x+1=11
numbers are 9,10,11
Seven hundred and thirteen thousand, two hundred and ninety eight
Do you remember when you were learning about the "Least Common
Multiple" of two numbers, and you were wondering why you had to learn
it, because you were so sure that you'd never need to use it ? Do you
remember that ?
Well, HERE's where you get to use it. This question is just looking for
the LCM of 6 and 15 . THAT's how many days it will be before you get
homework in both subjects on the same day again.
(It's not 90 days, and it's not 60 days.)
4: A school has 314 boys & 310 girls. If they are to be grouped into equal classes of 26 each , how many classes will there be?
314 boys + 310 girls = 624
If they are grouped into classes of 26 students each, how many class will there be?
130 students = 5 classes
Therefore
260 students = 10 classes
260 x 2 = 520 = 20 classes
26 x 24 = 624
Number of classes = 24
Question 5).
Jim worked 48 weeks last year. Each week he worked 38 hours. If he worked an additional 240 hours of overtime, how many hours did he work in all?
Solution:
48 weeks
24hrs × 7 = 168hrs
168 x 48 = 8,064
Additional 240hrs
= 168hrs = 7 days (a week)
240hrs - 168 = 72 (3days)
168 + 72
= 240hrs + 8, 064
= 8, 304 hrs
I think the answer would be 89
