Let the three consecutive number be x,x+1 and x+2.
It is given sum of three consecutive numbers is 46.
So,x+x+1+x+2=46
3x+3=46.
Subtracting 3 both sides
3x=46-3
3x=43.
x= 
Since is not an integer there is no true answer to this problem.
Answer:
273.5j+5.25
Step-by-step explanation:
first combine like terms 275j-1.5j. and then 2.25+3
You can say
x+y=5
x=5-y
You know the value of x, put it into the next equation.
3(5-y)-7y=19
15-3y-7y=19
15-19 = 10y
-4=10y
-4/10=y
-2/5=y
Put y value back into either equation to find value of x.
x+y=5
x-2/5=5
x=5+2/5
x=27/5
Therefore, x,y = (27/5, -2/5)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take a real situation. Suppose he has 1500 books in total
2/3 of them are fiction. Of means multiply.
them = 1500
2/3 * 1500 = 3000/3 = 1000
Now of the one thousand fiction books 4/5 of them are mysteries.
4/5 * 1000 = 4000/5 = 800.
Now let's see what happens when we just do this by answering the question directly.
2/3 * 4/5 = 8/15 This has the meaning that 8 out of every 15 books = mysteries.
Try this on the 1500 books.
8/15 * 1500 = 9000/15 = 800. So the answers are the same and the answer the computer expects should be 8/15 or 0.533333333
Just to check, does 0.5333333 * 1500 = 800? Try it.
