.4 is your answer....................
For the fulcrum to balance, the product of weight and distance on both sides of the fulcrum must be the same.
Let d1= x. since total distance is 12, we can write d2 = 12 - x
for the fulcrum to balance:
60x = 50(12 - x)
60x = 600 - 50x
110x = 600
x = 5.45
Thus, d1= 5.45
and
d2= 12 - d1 = 12 - 5.45 = 6.55
d1 = 5.45
d2 = 6.55
Answer:
20, 60, 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the third number be n, then
The first number is n + 5 and the second number is 4n
Sum the 3 numbers and equate to 95, that is
n + 5 + 4n + n = 95 ← collect like terms on left side
6n + 5 = 95 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
6n = 90 ( divide both sides by 6 )
n = 15
Thus
The first number is 15 + 5 = 20
The second number is 4 × 15 = 60
The third number is 15
