Answer:

Solution :-

To find the least number which when divided by 6, 15 and 18 leaves a remainder 5 in each case, we have to find the L.C.M. of 6, 15 and 18 and then add 5 in that number.

L.C.M. of 6, 5 and 18

6 = 2*3

15 = 3*5

18 = 2*3*3

L.C.M. of 6, 15 and 18 = 2*3*3*5 = 90

Now,

5 + 90 = 95

Hence, 95 is the least number which when divided by 6, 15 and 18 leaves a remainder 5 in each case.

Let us check our answer.

1) 95/6

Quotient = 15

Remainder = 5

2) 95/15

Quotient = 6

Remainder = 5

3) 95/18

Quotient = 5

Remainder = 5

So, the required number is 95.

Richard and Teo have a combined age of 37. Richard is 4 years older than twice Teo's age. How old are Richard and Teo?

valkas [14]

Answer:

Teo is 11 years old and Richard is 26 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let R be the age of Richard and T be the age of Teo.

First set up the equations:

The combined age of Teo and Richard is 37:

R+T=37

Richard is four years old than twice Teo's age:

R=2T+4

Then, solve the equations:

Substitute (2) to (1) and solve for T:

(2T+4)+T=37

3T=11

T=11

Solve for R using (2):

R=2(11)+4

R=22+4

R=26

K over x = w over v solve for x

Amiraneli [1.4K]

$\frac{k}{x}$ = $\frac{w}{v}$ Multiply both sides by v
 $\frac{kv}{x}$ = w Multiply both sides by x
kv = wx Divide both sides by w
 $\frac{kv}{w}$ = x Switch the sides to make it easier to read
x = $\frac{kv}{w}$
