Answer:

12 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation:

since one number is 4 less than the other, let x represent it. for the other number, let x+4 represent it since it's 4 greater than x. set the equation equal to 28 because the sum of the two numbers is 28.

x+x+4=28

now, we solve the equation:

x+x+4=28

2x+4=28

2x=24

x=12.

Since x equals 12, to find the other number, which would be 4 greater than x, we would add:

12+4=16

So, the two numbers are 12 and 16.

An ice cube is made of 5 fluid ounces of water. About how many milliliters of water does it take to make an ice cube
Sergio [31]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given that, an ice cube is made up of 5 fluid ounces of water.

We need to find how many milli liters of water does it require to make an ice cube.

For, that we have to convert 5 fluid ounces in to units of milli liters.

We know that, 1 US fluid ounce equals to 29.5735 milli liters. i.e. 1 US fluid ounce = 29.5735 mL

Now,  

An ice cube is made by 5 fluid ounces = 5 x 1 fluid ounce

= 5 x 29.5735 mL  = 147.868 mL

Hence, 147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.
