Answer:
9 7/8 is the answer, hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
x/4 = 3/2
x/2 = 3 (multiply both sides by 2)
x = 6 (multiply both sides by 2)
Therefore 6/4 = 3/2
Sam has the probability of 0 because hes only using 1 cube with 1 number on each side.
The small number is 2.
The large number is 3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.
- x be the small integer.
- x+1 be the large integer.
The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer
The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)
It is given that,
- The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- Here, the small integer is represented as x.
<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>
(2x+1) = 3x-1
Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,
3x-2x = 1+1
x = 2
Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.
