Interesting question about feet and inches.  The best way to solve this problem is to ask yourself how many inches are in a foot.  Since there are 12 inches in every foot then the length of 2'8" can be written as (2*12)" + 8".  Which is 24+8 or 32 inches.  The second number (1'6") can be written as (1*12)"+6" which is 18 inches.  32 + 18 = 50 inches.  Or, if you want to change this back into feet and inches just divide it by 12.  50/12 is 4 R. 2.  So 4'2".

When a number is added to 1/5 of itself, the result is 24. The equation that models this problem is n +1/5 n = 24. What is the v
Lady_Fox [76]

For this case we must find the value of n of the following equation:

n + \frac {1} {5} n = 24

Taking common factor "n" from the left side of the equation we have:

n (1+ \frac {1} {5}) = 24\\n \frac {6} {5} = 24

Multiplying by 5 on both sides of the equation:

6n = 120

Dividing between 6 on both sides of the equation:

n = 20

Thus, the value of n is 20.

Answer:

n = 20
