Answer:
Only 1 Time
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know that one coin is fake and that the coin is lighter than the rest , then you would only need to weigh all the coins together 1 time to ensure that you will find the fake coin. We can determine this by doing the following.
<u>Example:</u>
Lets say we have 100 coins that weigh 1 gr each. Meaning that the total weight of the 100 coins would be (100coins*1gr = 100gr) <em><u>IF</u></em> there are no fake coins in the batch.
Knowing this we can weigh the entire batch 1 time and if the total weight is less than 100gr we know that the fake coin is in that batch.

Answer:
7 hamsters at 5 pesos each and 13 hamsters at 8 pesos each
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8y = 139
x + y = 20
x = 20 - y
5x + 8y = 139
5(20 - y) + 8y = 139
100 - 5y + 8y = 139
100 + 3y = 139
3y = 139 - 100
3y = 39
3y/3 = 39/3
y = 13
x + y = 20
x + 13 = 20
x = 20 - 13
x = 7

You add everything together
Then, divide by however many numbers you have
210+160+200
570 / 3
