Answer:
1, 4 or 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The divisibility rule/shortcut for 3 is that the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. So, you currently have 29 (7+1+7+6+2+6+0), and you have to make that number divisible by 3.
adding 1 gets you 30, which we know is divisible by 3.
then, instead of trying every digit, we can note that
30 , 33 , 36 , 39 ....
are divisible by 3.
But the most we can add to the sum of 29 is 9 (because that is the highest digit possible)--so numbers above 38 are irrelevant
so, we want to find out if we can make 29 into 30, 33, or 36
adding 1 to 29 = 30
adding 4 to 29 = 33
adding 7 to 29 = 36
So, by making the first digit 1 , 4 , or 7, you make the number divisible by 3 (making the sentence true)
<span><span>15 times 9.25 = 138.75 inches.
That leaves
144-138.75 = 5.25 inches for spaces.
Between the 15 boards are just 14 spaces, however.
So divide 5.25 by 14 and get
3/8" for each space.</span>

<span>Hi there,
14 boards each 9 1/4 inches wide.
14 x 9 1/4 = 138 3/4 inches
144 inches - 138 3/4 inches
= 5 1/4 inches
Spaces between 14 boards
= 13 spaces.
5 1/4 / 13 = 2/5 of an inch.
Hope this helps. :-)</span></span>
Answer:the uncle is 54 years old.
The woman is 18 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the age of the uncle.
Let y represent the age of the woman that he married.
In the film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. This means that
x = 3y
He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 18 years time I shall only be twice her age. It means that
x + 18 = 2(y + 18)
x + 18 = 2y + 36 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes
3y + 18 = 2y + 36
3y - 2y = 36 - 18
y = 18
x = 3y = 3 × 18
x = 54
