Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues
are:
1. x – y = 16 (so
x is the larger number)
2. y / x = 5 / 7
rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:
y = (5/7) x
combining 1 and 2:
x – (5/7) x = 16
(2/7) x = 16
x = 56
y = (5/7) x = 40
So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that we have to determine the expressions which are equivalent to 20 percent of 150.
First, we need to determine what actually 20 percent of 150 really brings.
i.e
20% of 150 = 20/100 × 150
= 30
Thus,
20% of 150 = 30
Therefore, any expression that is equivalent to 30 will be included in the answer to this question.

Answer: 5 games
Step-by-step explanation: They need to win half their games for a .500 record and half or 30 is 15. They already won 10 so they need to win 15- 10 = 5 more games to have a .500 record.
