X - the number

x+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{8}x=70 \\
\frac{24}{24}x+\frac{8}{24}x+\frac{3}{24}x=70 \\
\frac{35}{24}x=70 \\
x=70 \times \frac{24}{35} \\
x=2 \times 24 \\
x=48

The number is 48.

which of the following is a true statement a) if AB=CD,then 3CD=3(CD+1). b)if AB=CD,then AB-CD=A-C+B-D. c)if AB=CD,thenAB+EF=CD+
Free_Kalibri [48]

a) if AB = CD, then 3CD = 3(CD + 1) NOT TRUE

example: AB = CD = 1, then 3CD = (3)(1)=3 and 3(CD + 1) = 3(1 + 1) = 3(2) = 6

b) if AB = CD, then AB - CD = A - C + B - D NOT TRUE (it does not make sense because A, B, C and D are points)

c) if AB = CD, then AB + EF = CD + EF TRUE

because

AB = CD    |add EF to both sides

AB + EF = CD + EF

d) if AB = CD, then 2AB = 2A + 2B NOT TRUE (it does not make sense because A and B are points).
