Step-by-step explanation:
terminate as it had already been simplify
If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:
20/x = 40/100
20/x = 4/10
20/x = 2/5
x = 50.
Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.
The value of 2 in 2783 (2000) is 10 times the value of two in 7283 (200).
Hope this helped!

Let the four consecutive numbers be x,x+1,x+2,x+3.
Now the product of second and third number=(x+1)(x+2)=x²+3x+2=k
Product of first and fourth number=x(x+3)=x²+3x=k-2
A.T.Q
product of second and third number= product of first and fourth number+2
Hence proved
