Let the two parts with equal length have length x.
The longer part has length x + 20.
The sum of the three lengths is 695 m.
x + x + x + 20 = 695
3x + 20 = 695
3x = 675
x = 225
x + 20 = 245
The two short parts measure 225 m, and the long part measures 245 m.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
3(x - 2) = 2(x + 1)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute: 3x - 6 = 2x + 2
- Subtract 2x on both sides: x - 6 = 2
- Add 6 to both sides: x = 8
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 3(8 - 2) = 2(8 + 1)
- Subtract/Add: 3(6) = 2(9)
- Multiply: 18 = 18
Here we see that 18 does indeed equal 18.
∴ x = 8 is a solution to the equation.

Answer:
-18
Step-by-step explanation:
let n be the number
(6-n)/3 = 8
6-n = 24
6-24 = n
-18 = n
