Quotient is another word for divide
1170/45
the answer is 26
0.132 written in lowercase:
one hundred thirty-two thousandths
zero point one hundred thirty-two
or, even simpler:
zero point one three two
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: unknown number (1)
y: unknown number (2)
We now write the equations that model the problem:
their sum is 6.1:
their difference is 1.6:
Solving the system we have:
We add both equations:
Then, we look for the value of y using any of the equations:
Answer:
The numbers are:
2 , 4 the last one will be 28
The original expression evaluates to 54.4 as shown in the first working.
_____
For some reason, 3.4 got transcribed to be 1.7 in the 3rd line of the second working. There is no math operation in the expression that requires 3.4 to be divided by 2.
