Step-by-step explanation:
If y is largest number, you want y, and the two next smaller even integers smaller than y - i.e. y, y-2, and y-4
The sum of these is y + (y-2) + (y-4).
This simplifies to 3y - 6 or 3(y - 2)
Since we don’t know what y is, this is as far as we can solve the problem.
28mi/1 hr = 28 mi/60 min = 1 mi/(60/28) min =
28 mi/hr = 28 mi/60 min since there are 60 min in 1 hr
1 mi/(60/28) min since you divide top and bottom of 28/60 by 28 to get
1 mi/(60/28) min = 1mi/(15/7) min = 1 mi/ 2 1/7 min
We have been given in a cohort of 35 graduating students, there are three different prizes to be awarded. We are asked that in how many different ways could the prizes be awarded, if no student can receive more than one prize.
To solve this problem we will use permutations.

We know that formula for permutations is given as

On substituting the given values in the formula we get,


Therefore, there are 39270 ways in which prizes can be awarded.
6-2+4-8
= 4+4-8
= 8-8
= 0
