"Six more than five" is also 5 + 6. When you add 5 and 6, you get 11.
Let's divide this question into two parts:
1. Choosing any 3 digit number.
2. Find the number that is 10 more.
1. Let choose the number 111. As you can see it is the three digit number.
2. Now to find the 10 more to 111, we have to add 10 to 111 as follows:
111
+10
--------
121
Hence, the 10 more to the number 111 is 121.
Answer:
1 : 12 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A, G, C represent the ages of Alex, George, and Carl, respectively. We are told that ...
A = G +12
C = 3A . . . . . . . we read this as "3 times as old"; not "3 times older"
A + G + C = 68
Substituting for G and C, we have ...
A + (A -12) +(3A) = 68
5A = 80 . . . . . add 12
A = 16 . . . . . . . divide by 5
The other ages are then ...
G = A-12 = 16 -12 = 4
C = 3A = 3·16 = 48
The ratios are ...
G : C : A = 4 : 48 : 16
G : C : A = 1 : 12 : 4
3 1/8
First you take the all the dogs that gained 3/4 (which is 4)
Then you multiply it by 4
3/4x4=3
Then you add the dogs that gained 1/8 of a pound
3+1/8=3 1/8
