Zan has created this rule for generating sequences of whole numbers. If a number is 25 or less, double the number. If a number i

s more than 25, subtract 12 from it. For example, if Zan starts with 10, she gets the sequence 10, 20, 40, 28, 16,... If the third number in Zan's sequence is 36, what is the sum of the four distinct numbers that could have been the first number in her sequence

Answer:

123

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Method to generate the sequence:

If a number is less than or equal to 25, then the number is doubled.

And if the number is more than 25, then 12 is subtracted from it.

Here, we are given a sequence with its third number is 36.

Now, let us have a look by making the number 36 as half of its value.

\frac{36}{2} = 18

This could have been the second number in the.

According to this, the first number will be \frac{18}{2} = \bold{9}

Other option for the first term can be 18 + 12 = 30

By second method, the second method can be:

36 + 12 = 48

By this method, First number 48 + 12 = 60

Other option for first number can be \frac{48}{2 } = \bold{24}

Therefore, sum of four options of first term:

9 + 30 + 60 + 24 = <em>123</em>

if the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, 1 egg will remain. if the eggs are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs will remain. if
Yanka [14]

The least number of eggs that could be in the basket is 119.

Multiple of the number:

The multiple is the numbers you get when you multiply a certain number by an integer.

Given,

If the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, 1 egg will remain.

If the eggs are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs will remain.

If the eggs are removed 4, 5, or 6 at a time, then 3, 4, and 5 eggs will remain, respectfully.

But if they are taken out 7 at a time, no eggs will be left over.

Here we need to find the least number of eggs in the basket.

Let the number of eggs in the basket be N.

We know that,

if the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, one eggs will remain.

So N is 1 less than a multiple of 2, so

=> N=2A-1

If they are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs remain.

So N is 2 more, and therefore 1 less than, a multiple of 3, so

=> N=3B-1

If the eggs are removed 4...at a time, then 3...eggs remain,

So N is 3 more, and therefore 1 less than, a multiple of 4, so

=> N=4C-1

Similarly,

For 5,

=> N = 5D - 1

For 6,

=> N = 6E - 1

So,  if they are taken out 7 at a time, no eggs will be left over.

So,

N => 7F

Where A,B,C,D,E, and F are any positive integer.

Therefore,

N = 2A-1 = 3B-1 = 4C-1 = 5D-1 = 6E-1 = 7F

Add 1 to all those:

N+1 = 2A = 3B = 4C = 5D = 6E = 7F+1

Through this,

N + 1 = 7F + 1

has to be a common multiple of 2,3,4,5,6.

So, the LCM of 2,3,4,5,6 is 60.

So N+1 is a multiple of 60 which means N is 1 less than a multiple of 60.

So we find the least multiple of 60 that is 1 more than a multiple

of 60.

The multiples are, 60, 59, ....but 59 is not a multiple of 7.

The next multiple of 60 is 120.  

1 less than 120 is 119, and sure enough, 119 is a multiple of 7.

So,

=> 119 = 17*7.

Therefore, the least number of eggs that could be in the basket is 119.
