Answer:
x=36° (180/5x because 2x+3x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number is 42.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the unknown number.
"two less than a number" is x - 2
Quotient means the result of a division.
(x - 2)/5 = 8
Multiply both sides by 5.
x - 2 = 40
Add 2 to both sides.
x = 42
Answer: The number is 42.
Check.
Start with 42. 2 less than 42 is 40. The quotient of 40 and 5 is 40/5 which is 8. The answer is correct.
Answer:
132600
Step-by-step explanation:
I was always taught like this, and this should be the best estimate:
28 x 4417 --> 30 * 4420 --> 132600
Some other possible estimates with simpler values:
30 * 4400 --> 132000
30 * 4500 --> 135000
30 * 4000 --> 120000
