Examples of rational numbers are: -2 = -2/1, -5 = -5/1, -14 = -14/1, 1/2, 2/3, 5/8, 3/4, 17/5, . 6 = 6/10 = 3/5, . 25 = 1/4, . 33 = 33/100, 2¾ = 11/4, 3⅓ = 10/3, .
Answer:
The answer is 148.6666667
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Set a linear quation

2) Cross multiply

3) Multiple the right side

4) Divide both side by 15

5) Solve the linear equation

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:consecutive integers are represented by x, x+1 , so for this problem the greater one is represented by x + 1.
Now you need to translate the problem. the greater is seven less than 1/3 the smaller
---> x + 1 = (1/3)*x - 7 ---> now solve for x (the smaller) and x+1 (the greater)
***hint: to get rid of fractions in an equation you can always multiply EVERYTHING by the denominator , 3 in this case
