Answer:
7 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 3 brothers
First , Second, Third
Let the total number cookies be represented by A
1 cookie = 1
Working backwards, we start from the third brother
If we work backwards
It means he gave everything away
We start from the youngest
He was given 1/2 of what was left and 1/2 a cookie
This means,
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
The second brother
He got half of what is left and 1/2 a cookies
Half of what is left from brother
= What the youngest brother got + 1/2 + 1/2 a cookie
= 1 + 1/2 + 1/2
= 1.5 + 1/2
= 2 cookies
For the first brother
He got 1/2 of the cookies + 1/2 cookie
= 1.5 × 2 + 1/2 + 1/2 cookies
= 3 1/2 + 1/2
= 4 cookies
The first brother got 4 cookies
The second brother got 2 cookies
The third broth got 1 cookies
Answer:
Your(my) number is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
I. Given 80/something, + 13, * 5 = 75 when x is something
So [
+ 13 ]5 = 75
[
+ 65] = 75
= 75 - 65
= 10
400 = 10x
x = 40
II. Prove by replace 40 in x
[(80/40) + 13]5 = 75
[2 + 13] 5 = 75
(15)5 = 75
75 = 75 true
