Answer: x= -189, y =252
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and second number be y
so
x + y = 63
x = 63-y
now
1/9 of x + 1/6 of y = 21
x/9 + y/6 = 21
substituting x's value from equation i
(63-y)/9 + y/6 = 21
(378-6y+9y)/54 = 21
378+3y = 1134
3y = 1134-378
so, 3y = 756
so, y = 756/3
so, y = 252
now
x = 63-252
so, x = -189
For a single 20 sided dice, a chance to get a certain number would be 1/20. For 2 numbers it will be a 2/20 chance, which can be simplified to a 1/10 chance that you will roll a 15 or a 17.
Leave the whole number alone for now. Divide 41 by 80 and you get 0.5125
So your answer is 9.5125
