Answer:
69
Step-by-step explanation:
Any odd number can be expressed by 2n+1.
For example,
2n+1=111
2n=110
n=110/2=55
means that 111 is 2n+1 for n=55
Thus if an odd number is 2a+1, the next few numbers are as follows:
2a+1, 2a+2, 2a+3, 2a+4, 2a+5
So 2a+1, 2a+3 and 2a+5 are 3 consecutive odd numbers.
Back to our problem:
three consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 63 are:
(2n+1)+(2n+3)+(2n+5)=63
6n+9=63
6n=63-9=54
n=54/6=9
2n+1=2*9+1=18+1=19, the 2 next odd numbers are 21 and 23
Answer: 19, 21, 23
Answer:
8:6 and 16:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value = -1(1/6) + 2(1/6) + 3(1/6) - 4(1/6) + 5(1/6) - 6(1/6) = -1/6 + 2/6 + 3/6 - 4/6 + 5/6 - 6/6 = -1/6 = -0.167
The increase in price is 140% of the original price.
The original price was 100% of the original price since 100% is a whole quantity.
Now the new price is 140% more than it was, so the new price is
100% + 140% of the old price.
100% + 140% = 240%
Now we find 240% of $50.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
240% of $50 =
= 240% * $50
= 2.4 * $50
= $120
