Answer: The numbers are 10 and 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be x
And the larger number be y
Ist sentence;
1. The sum of two numbers is 33.
X + y= 33 .........eqn 1
2. second sentence
the larger number is 3 more than two times the smaller number.
Y = 3 +2x
Put y into eqn 1
X+ 3 +2x = 33
3x= 33- 3
3x= 30
X = 30/3
X= 10 and y= 3+ 2x
Y= 3+ 2(10)
Y = 3+ 20
Y= 23
Therefore the two numbers are 10 and 23
Answer:
8 red marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
All together we have 40 marbles. The fraction of marbles that are red is 1/5 which means that we should divide the total number of marbles, which is 40 by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) 5 so that we get the number of groups that have 1 red marble in them. In this case we have 8 groups.
40/5=8
You always divide by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) first and then you multiply your answer by the numerator ( Top number of fraction ) .
If each group has 1 red marble in it and we have 8 groups, it means that we have 8 red marbles in the bag.
1 * 8 = 8 red marbles in the bag
If the numerator (number above the fraction line) was more than one, then this would mean that we have more than 1 marble in each group of marbles.
Example:
If we had 3/5 we would have 3 marbles in each group of marbles. This means that instead of doing 1 * 8 we would have to do 3 * 8 = 24. We would have 24 red marbles in the bag.
Easy and quick way if you do not need the explanation:
Another way we could do this is by simply multiplying the fraction ( 1/5 ) by the total number of marbles ( 40 ). This would still give us an answer of 8 red marbles in the bag. 40/5=8, 8*1=8
