Answer: 29 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one number is 5 more than another

53-5 = 48

Then we divide that by two to get the value of one of the two numbers

48/2= 24

In order to get the number which is 5 more than the other, we add 5

24+5= 29

So the two numbers would be 29 and 24.

Check:

29+24= 53

Answer:   24 and 29

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent one of the numbers, then the other number is x + 5.

"sum" means to add them, so lets add x and x + 5 and set it equal to 53

   x    +     x + 5    = 53

             2x + 5    = 53           <em>simplified</em>

             2x          = 48           <em>subtracted 5 from both sides</em>

               x          = 24            <em>divided 2 from both sides</em>

So one of the numbers is 24.    The other number is    x + 5  

                                                                                  =   24 + 5

                                                                                  =      29

Answer:

The lowest amount would be (1 x 5) + (2019 x 1) = 2024 cents, or $20.24

The highest amount would be: (1 x 1) + (2019 x 5) = 10,096 cents, or $100.96

100.96 - 20.24 = 80.72

I need help with This question it saids how would you compare 2.3 feet To 27.1 inches
Savatey [412]

Answer:

TOP RIGHT BOX

2.3 x 12 = 27.6

27.6 > 27.1

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing you need to do is make their units the same.

There are 12 inches in a foot so we convert 2.3 feet to inches by multiplying 2.3 by 12:

2.3 x 12 = 27.6

You can also approach it like this:

12in = 1 ft

2.3ft\times\dfrac{12inches}{1ft}=27.6

So if we compare the two then we know that:

27.6 > 27.1
