Solve this equation: 80 = 3y + 2y + 4 + 1.
Verdich [7]
Let us first write down the given equation.
80 = 3y + 2y + 4 + 1
80 = 5y + 5
80 - 5 = 5y
75 = 5y
Just reversing both sides we get
5y = 75
Now dividing both sides by 5 we get
y = 15
So the value of y is 15. I hope the procedure for solving the problem is clear to you. In future you can solve such problems with ease following the procedure described.

If the product of two positive fractions a and b is 15/56, find three pairs of possible values for a and b
Andrews [41]

Answer:

First possible pairs = (3/7)*(5/8) = 15/56

second possible pairs = (3/4)*(5/14) = 15/56

third possible pairs = (1/2)*(15/28) = 15/56

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

a x b = 15/56

three possible pairs will be as follows:

Before proceeding to make possible pairs, we have to know the prime factorization of the numbers -

15 = 1, 3, 5, 15

56 = 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56

As we need three possible pairs, we have to check which pairs take us to 15/56. Again, since the fraction is positive, therefore, the fractions will be proper. Therefore, 3/2, or 5/4 will not be counted. Therefore,

First possible pairs = (3/7)*(5/8) = 15/56

second possible pairs = (3/4)*(5/14) = 15/56

third possible pairs = (1/2)*(15/28) = 15/56

fourth possible pairs = (3/8)*(5/7) = 15/56

So, we can get those four possible pairs. Among those, first 3 pairs are different. Therefore, those are possible pairs.
