Three consecutive integers are n, n+1, and n+2 so

n+n+1+n+2=243

3n+3=243

3n=240

n=80

So the integers are 80,81, and 82

First integer: x
second integer: x+1
third integer: x+2
Set up an equation: 3x+3=243
3x=240
x=80
The integers are 80,81,82

ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes. how much longer would it take him to deliver 56 papers than 4

UkoKoshka [18]

We are given

Ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes

so, number of papers =6 in time =24 minutes

so, firstly we can find rate

rate = ( number of papers)/( time taken)

$r=\frac{6}{24} =\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find times

Time for 56 papers:

we are given

number of papers =56

rate is

$r=\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find time

$t_1=\frac{56}{r}$

$t_1=\frac{56}{\frac{1}{4}}$

$t_1=224min$

Time for 41 papers:

we are given

number of papers =41

rate is

$r=\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find time

$t_2=\frac{41}{r}$

$t_2=\frac{41}{\frac{1}{4}}$

$t_2=164min$

now, we can find time difference

$t=t_1-t_2$

so, we can plug values

$t=224-164$

$t=60 min$ ..............Answer

The choir at wise middle school was preparing for their Hispanic concert. While rehearsing their opening song they noticed it to

Dominik [7]

Answer:

45.88 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

$t_1$ = Time taken to sing the fist time = $48.7\ \text{s}$

Time taken to sing the second time was $2.9\ \text{s}$ less than the first time so

$t_2=t_1-2.9\\\Rightarrow t_2=48.7-2.9\\\Rightarrow t_2=45.8\ \text{s}$

Time taken to sing the third time was $0.47\ \text{s}$ less than the the second time

$t_3=t_2-0.47\\\Rightarrow t_3=45.8-0.47\\\Rightarrow t_3=45.88\ \text{s}$

So the time it took the choir to sing the third time was 45.88 seconds.

There are 3 3/4 pounds of bricks in a bag. Each brick weighs 5/8 of a pound. How many bricks are in the bag.

Bess [88]

Answer: There are 6 bricks in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert from mixed number to decimal number. To do it, divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator and add the result to the whole number part. Then:

$3\frac{3}{4}\ lb=(3+0.75)\ lb=3.75\ lb$

Convert from fraction to decimal number. To do it you need to divide the numerator by the denominator. Then, you get:

$\frac{5}{8}lb=0.625\ lb$

Let be "x" the number of bricks in the bag<em>.</em>

<em> </em>Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{1}{0.625}=\frac{x}{3.75}$

Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

$(3.75)(\frac{1}{0.625})=x\\\\x=6$
