Let the age of father and daughter be x and y.
By the question,
x = y+28 equation i
Three years ago;
x-3 = 5 ( y- 3 ) equation ii
y + 28 - 3 = 5y - 15 ( substitute x in eq’n 2 )
y + 25 = 5y - 15
40 = 4y
y= 10
Thus daughter is 10 years old.
Father is 10 + 28 = 38 years.

Solve: -(19/2) ÷ 38/7
Luden [163]

Answer:

(-1)/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

((-19)/2×1/38)/7

(-19)/2×1/38 = (-19)/(2×38):

((-19)/(2×38))/7

(-19)/(2×38)×1/7 = (-19)/(2×38×7):

(-19)/(2×38×7)

The gcd of -19 and 38 is 19, so (-19)/(2×38×7) = (19 (-1))/(2 (19×2) 7) = 19/19×(-1)/(2×2×7) = (-1)/(2×2×7):

(-1)/(2×2×7)

2×2 = 4:

(-1)/(4×7)

4×7 = 28:

Answer: (-1)/28
