A number of robbers were discussing how best to share some stolen rolls of

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of robbers be x

If they share 6 rolls each, the tota rolls will be 6x and since they have five remainder, the overall total is then 6x+5

In case they share 7 rolls each, it means they have 7x rolls but here they will be less 8 rolls hence 7x-8 is the overall total.

Equating these two

7x-8=6x+5

Arranging similar terms

7x-6x=8+5

x=13

Therefore, the robbers are 13

The rolla they have will be

6(13)+5=83

Or

7(13)-8=83

it takes 18 3/8 inches of wood to make a frame for a small picture if Ms Jones has 108 inches of wood how many frames can she ma
scZoUnD [109]
It would make 5 complete frames, and about 8/10 of another frame.
108 / 18.375 = 5.8&*)&^&%*$*
I used a calculator.
You could keep adding 18 and 3/8 over and over again until you get right under 108 if you're good at math like me, but most people would have to add 18 and 3/8 separately.

Thanks, and if you liked my answer, please consider giving me the brainliest answer, because I need 5 of them to get to the next level.
