Answer:

The second number = 30

The first number = 25

The third number = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The second number = x

The first number = x - 5

The third number = 2(x - 5)

Total = 105

105 = x + (x - 5) + 2(x - 5)

105 = x + x - 5 + 2x - 10

105 = 4x - 15

105 + 15 = 4x

120 = 4x

x = 120/4

x = 30

The second number = x

= 30

The first number = x - 5

= 30 - 5

= 25

The third number = 2(x - 5)

= 2(30 - 5)

= 2(25)

= 50

Su Ling started an art project with 1 yard felt. She used 5/6 yard. How much felt does Su Ling have left?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

1/6 yard of felt

Step-by-step explanation:

Su Ling started with one yard, and she used 5/6 of it, which means five-sixths of the yard of felt get taken away. Now you have the last sixth of the yard left over - 1/6 of a yard of felt. One equals six sixths, so here's the math -

1yd = 6/6 yd

6/6 yd - 5/6 yd = 1/6 yd
