3(x−5)/2=2(x+5)/3
Cross-multiply.
(3(x−5))/2=(2(x+5))/3
3(x−5)*(3)=2(x+5)*(2)
9x−45=4x+20
Subtract 4x from both sides.
9x−45−4x=4x+20−4x
5x−45=20
Add 45 to both sides.
5x−45+45=20+45
5x=65
Divide both sides by 5.
5x/5=65/5
x=13
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 2 numbers be x and y
From the problem we have that
x * y = 600 and x + y = 59
From x + y = 59 -> x = 59 - y
Plug x = 59 - y to x * y = 600 we have
(59 - y) * y = 600
-> 59y - y^2 = 600
-> -y^2 + 59y - 600 = 0
-> y =
or 
Then we could plug the answers in and find x because x = 59 - y
If you round, it’ll be 7,0
72 and 96 are divisible by 3, 6, and 8.
