Answer:
195
Step-by-step explanation:
-2........................
2 1/2 = 2.5
12 1/2 = 12.5
This means you can calculate how may times it goes in by dividing it and rounding the number down:
12.5 / 2.5 = 5
*5 can not be rounded down so it stays the same
This means that 2 1/2 goes into 12 1/2 5 times. Hope this helps! :)
5*23
Note 23 = 20 + 3
5*23 = 5*(20 + 3) and by distributive property
5*23 = 5*20 + 5*3 = 100 + 15 = 115
= 115
The next number would be 4 because you add 1, then, subtract 2, add 3, subtract 4, meaning you would add 5 to -1 and get 4
The answer is 4
