Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let first group of people take x candies each
and second group of people take y candies each
5x + 7y will be total candies
5x +7y = 239 (needed to find positive solution of x,y)
now take x=38, y =7
or x=31, y= 12
hence lots of possibilities ,so we can not say exactly
answer the original number is 6
(5x + 2 - 10) *2 = 44
10x + -16 = 44
10x = 60
x=6
9514 1404 393
Answer:
56, 60, 64
Step-by-step explanation:
The middle of the three numbers is their average: 180/3 = 60. The other two will be 4 more or less than this.
The numbers of interest are 56, 60, 64.

<em>Additional comment</em>
For "consecutive integer" problems, it is often useful to work with the average of the numbers. The average will be the middle number of an odd number of numbers (as here), or will be halfway between the two middle numbers if their number is even.
Even if you bother to write equations, it can work to do that in terms of the average value (middle number): (x -4) +(x) +(x +4) = 180 in this case.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a cylinder is the radius of the circle times pi squared, multiplied by the height. 3 squared is 9, times pi is 9(pi). If we multiply this by the height, the answer is 90(pi) centimeters in volume.
