Answer:

8 and 48

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be written as a system of equations. X will be the smaller number and y will be the larger:

6x = y

x + y = 56

Then substitute y in the second equation for 6x(seen in first equation) and solve.

x + 6x = 56

7x = 56

x = 8

So one number is 8. To find the other plug in 8 for x in either of the original equations (both get the same answer for y).

6x = y

6 * 8 = y

48 = y

Then double check by seeing if they fit the requirements of the problem.

Hope this helps!

Find three consecutive even numbers whose sum is 1884.
Scilla [17]

Answer:

smallest number=626

middle number=628

larger number=630

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the numbers, let's use n as the variable. Since we know that the numbers are consecutive even numbers, we know that they increase by 2. For example, we could have 2+4+6=12.

Knowing that the consecutive numbers increase by two's, we can use this.

smallest number: n

middle number: n+2

larger number: n+4

All we have to do is add these together and set it equal to 1884.

n+(n+2)+(n+4)=1884          [combine like terms]

3n+6=1884                         [subtract both sides by 6]

3n=1878                              [divide both sides by 3]

n=626

Now that we know n=626, we also know that the other numbers are 626, 628, 630 respectively.
