The sum of two numbers is 35. Three times the larger number is the same as 4 times the smaller number. Find the smaller number

1 answer:

3 0

If 35-x is the smaller number and x is the larger number, we can take that 3*x=4*(35-x)=140-4x. Subtracting 3x from both sides, we get 140-7x=0. Adding 7x to both sides, we get 140=7x. Lastly, we can divide both sides by 7 to get x=20

Talja [164]

The answer would be A. 39,300.

I got this by multiplying 34,500 by 2% and getting 690. Since 2018 is 7 years away from 2025, I multiplied 690 by 7 getting 4,830. I added the 4,830 to the original population of 34,500 and got my answer, 39,300. Hope I helped!
