The answer is 1/4 because it is 8 sections but there is two of each color
An integer may be a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 1 greater than a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 2 greater than a multiple of 3.
It is redundant to say an integer is 3 greater than a multiple of 3 (that's just a multiple of 3, we've got it covered). Same for 4, 5, 6, 7...
Let's consider a number which is a multiple of 3. Clearly, we can write 3+3+3+3+... until we reach the number. It can be written as only 3's.
Let's consider a number which is 2 greater than a multiple of 3. If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be a multiple of 3. That means we can write the number as 5+3+3+3+3+... Of course, the number must be at least 8.
Let's consider a number which is 1 greater than a multiple of 3. If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be 2 greater than a multiple of 3. If we subtract another 5, it'll be a multiple of 3. That means we can write the number as 5+5+3+3+3+3+... Of course, the number must be at least 13.
That's it. We considered all the numbers. We forgot 9, 10, 11, and 12, but these are easy peasy.
Beautiful question.
I honestly don’t know the equation but I just took the starting price, $230,000 and multipled it by .03 which was 6,900 and subtracted that from 230,000: 223,190. I repeated that 5 times. The answer I got is 197,508.83
Answer:
2 2/19
Step-by-step explanation:
5 cases in 2 3/8 hours
The unit rate of cases per hour is calculated by dividing the number of cases by the number of hours.
5/(2 3/8) = 5/(19/8) = 5 * 8/19 = 40/19 = 2 2/19
