Answer:
The smaller number is 127
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets write the given problem in equation form
sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 = n + n + 1 = 2n + 1
now we find twice of the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1
2*(2n + 1) = 4n + 2
given that
twice the sum of consecutive numbers n and n + 1 is 510
thus,
4n + 2 = 510
=> 4n = 510 -2 = 508
=> n = 508/4 = 127
Thus, the numbers are n = 127
n+1 = 127 + 1 = 128
the smaller number is 127
Answer:
6 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 minutes in an hour. This can be broken up into 5 12-minute intervals. From there, you can do 3 intervals of 12 minutes which is 36 minutes. The 36 minutes is divisible by 6 questions getting to 6 minutes per question.
Answer: 1/3
Explanation:
1/12 of the squad are suspended:
1/12 x 24 = 24/12 = 2
So 2 player are suspended
24 - 2 = 22 player
And some are injured leaving 14 left to play:
22 - 14 = 8 players injured
So 8/24 is the fraction of injured player.
But 8/24 = 1/3 so we can say 1/3 of the whole squad are injured.
