Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees
We know from the problem that
f + p = 21 and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation
so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree
substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree
Answer:
32 remainder 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide 162 by 5, we simply do the following:
5 goes into 16 => 3
Multiply 5 by 3 => 3 × 5 = 15
Subtract 15 from 16 => 16 – 15 = 1
Put the 1 before 2 => 12
5 goes into 12 => 2
Multiply 5 by 2 => 5 × 2 = 10
Subtract 10 from 12 => 12 – 10 => 2
In summary,
162 divided by 5 => 32 remainder 2
