Define x :
-----------------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x+1 and x+2.
-----------------------------------------------
Construct equation :
-----------------------------------------------
The sum of all 3 numbers is 78
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
-----------------------------------------------
Solve x :
-----------------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
3x + 3 = 78
3x = 78 - 3
3x = 75
x = 25
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: Smallest number = 25

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The dealing of the cards can be seen in the following way:
We first have to choose which 7 cards are going to be dealt to the 1st player. So we have to pick 7 cards out of the 52 available cards. This can be done in
ways. Now that we have chosen which 7 cards are going to be dealt to the 1st player, we have to choose which 2 of them are going to be the hidden ones. So we have to pick 2 cards out of the 7 cards to be the hidden ones. This can be done in
ways. At this point we now know which cards are being dealt to the 1st player, and which ones are hidden for him. Then we have to choose which 7 cards to deal to the 2nd player, out of the remaining ones. So we have to pick 7 out of 52-7=45. (since 7 have been already dealt to the 1st player). This can be done in
. Then again, we have to pick which 2 are going to be the hidden cards for this 2nd player. So we have to pick 2 out of the 7. This can be done in
ways. Then we continue with the 3rd player. We have to choose 7 cards out of the remaining ones, which at this point are 52-7-7=38. This can be done in
. And again, we have to choose which ones are the hidden ones, which can be chosen in
ways. Finally, for the last player, we choose 7 out of the remaining cards, which are 52-7-7-7=31. This can be done in
ways. And choosing which ones are the hidden ones for this player can be done in
ways. At the end, we should multiply all our available choices on each step, to get the total choices or total ways to deal the cards to our 4 players (since dealing the cards is a process of several steps with many choices on each step).

Answer:
The unit price is the cost per unit of an item or the cost/price for each item.
1) <u>4$</u> per pound. By simplifying the proportion (constant ratio) between the cost, and the pounds of apples. 3 pounds of apples cost 12$ → 3/3 pounds of apples cost 12/3$ → 4 dollars for every pound.
2) <u>2$</u> per pound. By evaluating the rate of change (change in the y over x or dependent variable over independent) in the equation: y = <u>2</u>x. y is the cost in dollars, and x is the pounds of apples. So there are 2 pounds (weight) of apples for every dollar.
3) <u>3$</u> per pound. Given a graph with a y scaled by 3, and an x scaled by 1 with a graph y = x or 1 unit up for every unit right. This must be equivalent to y = 3x. Where y is labeled as the cost in dollars, and x as the weight in pounds. So there are 3 dollars for every pound of apples.
4) Store B. Because 2 is less than 3 which is less than 4.
Answer: I wow I don't know about the whole page but (Question 2 ) 24 multiplied by b equals number of mangoes in b boxes
Step-by-step explanation: I hope this makes sense.
b can be replaced with any number you can create a number sentence by plugging in 4 for example 24 * 4 = 96 so there is a total of 96 mangoes if b= 4
