If there are 4 marbles left over each time, then we can forget about them for now.
So the question is, what is the smallest number than can be divided into 6,7 and 8?
the numbers have only one non-1 divisor in common: both 6 and 8 are divisible by 3.
so for our purposes we can "delete" one 2 and ask:
what is the smallest number than can be divided into 3,7 and 8 ?
There are no more divisors in common, so we just have to multiply them: 3*7*8=21*8=168
and the 4 marbles "extra"? We add them to this sum.
the the smallest possible number in the box is 168+4=172.
Answer:
Aaron’s present age = x - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Ron’s present age be x.
Then Aaron’s present age = x - 5
After 4 years Ron’s age = x + 4, Aaron’s age x - 5 + 4.
According to the question;
Ron will be twice as old as Aaron.
Therefore, x + 4 = 2(x - 5 + 4)
⇒ x + 4 = 2(x - 1)
⇒ x + 4 = 2x - 2
⇒ x + 4 = 2x - 2
⇒ x - 2x = -2 - 4
⇒ -x = -6
⇒ x = 6
Therefore, Aaron’s present age = x - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1
Hope this answer helps you :)
Have a great day

N+2….but I think there is something missing
Answer: 48
Step-by-step explanation: 10% of 480 would be 48 because your finding 10% of 480. for example: 10% of 100 would be ten because if you multiplied 10 times 10 it would be 100.
