Let b>a,
a+b=40 so we can say a=40-b
We are told that b-a=6.5, using a found above in the equation gives us:
b-(40-b)=6.5
b-40+b=6.5
2b-40=6.5
2b=46.5
b=23.25, and since a=40-b
a=40-23.25
a=16.75
So a=16.75 and b=23.25
check...
16.75+23.25=40, 40=40
23.25-16.75=6.5, 6.5=6.5
No. and i will keep it like that
In a four-digit number, the first digit cannot be 0, so there are only 4 even numbers available. For the second, third, and fourth digits, there are 5 available numbers. Thus, the number of 4-digit numbers containing only even digits is 4 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 500 numbers.
Answer: 5/6>7/8
Hope that helps
66+52+x=180
118+x=180
x=180-118
x=62
Hope this helps :)
