Answer:
I think it’s 95 debit but it could be credit
Step-by-step explanation:
75 + 80 = 155
155 - 60 = 95
The ratio of red to green is 5:6 which means that for every 5 red cars, there are 6 green cars
The ratio of green to blue is 3:10 telling us that for every 3 green cars, there are 10 blue cars.
The ratio 3:10 is equivalent to 6:20 after we multiply both parts by 2. This now says that for every 6 green cars, there are 20 blue cars.
------------------------------
Let's say we had 5 red cars, 6 green cars and 20 blue cars
Based on that info, we know that the ratio of red to green is 5:6
And the ratio of green to blue is 6:20 which reduces to 3:10
We don't reduce 6:20 to 3:10 however, since that would change the green count from 6 to 3. We want to keep the green count at 6.
So because there are 5 red cars, 6 green cars, and 20 blue cars in this example, and this example points to the proper ratios mentioned earlier, this means that the final answer is 5:6:20. This ratio cannot be reduced or simplified as there are no common factors (other than 1) for 5, 6, and 20.
Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.
x + y + z = 79
x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first
Therefor,
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x
x + 5x + x + 16 = 79
Add all like numbers:
7x + 16 = 79
To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.
7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63
To get x, divide both sides by 7
7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9
To check. Substitute x by 9.
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
