The thief originally stole 64 plants.
<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>
In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.
Here,
Let the number of plants originally stolen by the thief be x.
On the way out, the thief meets three security guards, one after another. To each security guard, the thief is forced to give one-half of the plants that he still had, plus 2 more.
Here,
For gourd 1 the planet is given = 1/2 x
For gourd 2 the planet is given = 1/2 * 1/2 x = 1/4 x
For gourd 3 the planet is given = 1/2*1/4 x = 1/8 x
Total plant given to the gourds = 1/2x +1/4x +1/8x + 2 = 7/x/8x +2
Finally, the thief leaves the nursery with 10 plants
x - 7x/8 + 2 = 10
x/8 = 8
x = 64
Thus, the thief stole 64 plants.

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3, 5.38, 66, V21
Step-by-step explanation:
I assumed that V was the roman numeral V, which is equivalent to the number 5. I then multiplied 5 by 21 which is 105. If this is not the case and they simply wanted us to replace the v with a 5, then the answer would still be correct because 521 is greater than all the numbers in this set. Hope this helps.
Answer:
14.0833333333 feet | 13 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
169 Inches is 14.0833333333 feet on calculator compared to 13 feet
and 1.08333333333 is 14.0833333333 divided by 13
if is not it, then 13/14.0833333333 is 0.92307692307
i guess that is the lowest terms in ratio
First you subtract 25 from 5 which equals 20 then you multipliy 4 to 20 and you get 80...so 80 is your solution.
