11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 Sorry if it doesn't help, I'm being too obvious
There would be 12 people at the party!
In general, with n+1 people, the number of handshakes is the sum of the first n consecutive numbers: 1+2+3+ ... + n.
Since this sum is n(n+1)/2, we need to solve the equation n(n+1)/2 = 66.
This is the quadratic equation n2+ n -132 = 0. Solving for n, we obtain 11 as the answer and deduce that there were 12 people at the party.
Since 66 is a relatively small number, you can also solve this problem with a hand calculator. Add 1 + 2 = + 3 = +... etc. until the total is 66. The last number that you entered (11) is n.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
O.1% of 203.75 million is 0.20375.
Answer:
27.4
Step-by-step explanation:
First multiply the numerator and denominator by 10
Then write the problem in long division format
Then divide 52 by 19 and get 2
Then multiply the quotient digit (2) by the divisor 19
Then subtract 38 from 52
Then bring down the next number of the dividend
Then divide 140 by 19 to get 7
Then multiply the quotient digit (7) by the divisor 19
Then subtract 133 from 140
Then add a decimal point to the solution
Then bring down the next number of the dividend
Then divide 76 by 19 to get 4
Then multiply the quotient digit (4) by the divisor 19
Then subtract 76 from 76
The solution for long division for 52.06./1.9 is 27.4
27.4
