Answer: 21 & 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of two numbers is 39
Difference is 3
Let the numbers be x & y
X+y=39........equation 1
X-y=3...........equation 2
X=3+y............equation 3
Substitute equation 3 into equation 1
(3+y)+y=39
3+y+y=39
3+2y=39
2y=39-3
2y=36
Y=36/2
Y=18
Substitute for y in equation 2
X-y=3
X-18=3
X=3+18
X=21
The two numbers are 21 & 18
Answer:
852 students walking to school
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start with a simple example so you can get it
if 60% of 100 students walk to school that means
60 students walk to school... right??
so lets simplify it more that means you have multiplied 100 (students) by 60%
or 
(note: you can say that 60% is equal to )
so the problem told 60% of 1420 students walk to school that means we should
do this: 
Subtract 1.75 from 5.00
5.00-1.75= 3.25
Answer:
One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number. Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.
