Let, the Age of Michelle = x
Age of Steve = x + 15

After 8 years, (x + 15 + 8) = 2(x + 8)
x + 23 = 2x + 16
2x - x = 23 - 16
x = 7
So, x + 15 = 22

In short, Age of Michelle is 7 & Age of Steve is 22 Years

Hope this helps!

Prove that an integer consisting of 3n ones is divisible by 3n (e.g. 111 is divisible by 3, 111,111,111 is divisible by 9, etc.)
mote1985 [20]

For proof of 3 divisibility, abc is a divisible by 3 if the sum of abc (a + b + c) is a multiple of 3.

<h3>Integers divisible by 3</h3>

The proof for divisibility of 3 implies that an integer is divisible by 3 if the sum of the digits is a multiple of 3.

<h3>Proof for the divisibility</h3>

111 = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3  (the sum is multiple of 3 = 3 x 1)  (111/3 = 37)

222 = 2 + 2 + 2 = 6 (the sum is multiple of 3 = 3 x 2)  (222/3 = 74)

213 = 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 ( (the sum is multiple of 3 = 3 x 2)  (213/3 = 71)

27 = 2 + 7 = 9  (the sum is multiple of 3 = 3 x 3)  (27/3 = 9)

Thus, abc is a divisible by 3 if the sum of abc (a + b + c) is a multiple of 3.

Solve the math riddle below
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

28 eggs

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes a hen and a half to lay an egg and a half in a day and a half - this means it takes 1 hen to lay 1 egg in a day and a half. Therefore, 1 hen will lay 4 eggs in 6 days, and 7 hens will lay 28 eggs in 6 days.
