I think this is right.. I tried my best. If u get it sorry... I’m very sorry



1. Divide 7.20 by 4 since the 4 are the pencils

2.divide 7.20 by 5 ( 5 represents the erasers )

3. Then finally multiply 1.44 from 7.20/5 and
2 and u get 2.88

Grandma baked 969696 cookies and gave them to her grandchildren. One of the grandchildren, Cindy, received ccc fewer cookies tha
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96

Number of grandchildren = 8

As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, \frac{96}{8}=12 cookies per children.

But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.

Expression becomes: x=12-c

Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.

The product of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 2,145. Enter a simplified expression for finding the numbers. Let n be the first odd
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

11, 13 and 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the odd number is "x". If x is for example 15, then the next ODD number would be 15+2=17 and the one after that would be 15+2+2=15+4=19.

Applying that here, we get:

Odd number* the next odd number*the next odd number=2145

x*(x+2)*(x+4)=2145

x*(x^2+4x+2x+8)=2145

x^3+6x^2+8x=2145

By solving the polynomial, you get x=11.

Which makes our three numbers: 11, 13 and 15.

11*13*15=2145. The answer checks.
