Answer:
44 and 110
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the 2 numbers = 2 : 5 = 2x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , thus
difference = 5x - 2x = 3x , then
3x = 66 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 22
Thus
2x = 2 × 22 = 44
5x = 5 × 22 = 110
The 2 numbers are 44 and 110
Answer:
<h2>no solution</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1 is 1/2 5 is 2 1/2 and 7 would be 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3><u>The unknown number is equal to 4.</u></h3>
8x - 27 = 5
Add 27 to both sides.
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8
x = 4
Answer:
5 and 25
Step-by-step explanation:
let the son's age be x then the father's age is x + 20
In 5 years
son = x + 5 and father = x + 20 + 5 = x + 25
Then
x + 25 = 3(x + 5) ← father is three times as old as son
x + 25 = 3x + 15 ( subtract x from both sides )
25 = 2x + 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
10 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )
5 = x and x + 20 = 5 + 20 = 25
si=on is 5 and father is 25
