The sum of three consecutive integers is 141. what is the smallest integer

1 answer:

3 0

Integer 1 = n
integer 2 = n + 1
integer 3 = n + 2

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = 141
3n + 3 = 141
3n = 141 - 3
3n = 138
n = 138/3
n = 46 --(1st integer)

n + 1 = 46 + 1 = 47 --(2nd integer)
n + 2 = 46 + 2 = 48 --(3rd integer)

so the smallest integer is 46

How many times greater is 70 million than 7 million

Dahasolnce [82]

For this case we have the following expressions:

70,000,000

7,000,000

If we divide the first expression by the second we have:

$\frac {70,000,000} {7,000,000} = 10$

Thus, we have that the first expression is 10 times greater than the second expression.

Answer:

70,000,000 is 10 times greater than 7,000,000
