Answer: <u><em>The first number is 8</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation: Let the three No. s be x, y and z respectively

given = x+ y+ z= 72

y=7x

z=7x-18

∴As we know x+ y+ z=72

i.e. x+7x+7x-18=72

15x=72+18=90

15x=90

x=90/15

∴x=8

∴y=7x

7×8=56

∴z=7x-18

56-18=38

∴<u><em>The first no. is x=8</em></u>

<u><em>The second no. is y=7x = 56</em></u>

<u><em>The third no. is z=7x-18 = 38</em></u>

Answer:

Let the first number be x, second number be 7x and the third number be      7x-18. Then,

Sum of the numbers=72

or, x+(7x) +(7x-18)=72

or, 15x=90

or, x=6

So, the first number is 6.

a collector has 80 jackeys and 125 shirts she wants to maintain ratio in her collection but she needs to sell some of her items
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, we need to simplify this. we have a ratio of 80:125.

As these numbers end in either 0 or 5, we know they are divisible by 5.

By dividing these by five, our ratio becomes 16:25.

As we have 16 jackets, we know we must need to sell 25 jackets to maintain the ratio.
