Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Esinam shere a common ratio hence,

the lcm of 3 and 5 is 15

Kissi:Esinam= 9:15 and Esinam:Lariba=15:25

Combining; 9:15:25

Let x be the ages such that,

Kissi=9x and Esinam=15x and Lariba=25x

9x+15x+25x=147

49x=147

x=3

Youngest; Kissi=9x=9(3)=27

Oldest; Lariba=25x=25(3)=75

Difference 75-27=48

Answer:

<6 = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

<5 + <6 + 90 = 180  since the 3 angles form a straight line

22 + <6 + 90 =180

Combine like terms

112+ <6 = 180

Subtract 112 from each side

<6 = 180-112

<6 =68

The sum of two numbers is 52. One number is 3 times as large as the other number. Which is the larger number
creativ13 [48]

The two number are 39 and 13

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let the two numbers be "a" and "b"

Let the larger number be "a" and the smaller number be "b"

<em><u>Given that, sum of two numbers is 52</u></em>

a + b = 52 ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>One number is 3 times as large as the other number</u></em>

Larger number = 3 times smaller number

a = 3b -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1and eqn 2</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>

3b + b = 52

4b = 52

b = 13

<em><u>Substitute b = 13 in eqn 2</u></em>

a = 3(13)

a = 39

Thus the two number are 39 and 13
