Answer:
<h2>45, 46, 47</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
n, n + 1, n + 2 - three consecutive integers
The equation:
138 - n = (n + 1) + (n + 2)
138 - n = n + 1 + n + 2 <em>combile like terms</em>
138 - n = 2n + 3 <em>subtract 138 from both sides</em>
-n = 2n - 135 <em>subtract 2n from both sides</em>
-3n = -135 <em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>
n = 45
n + 1 = 46
n + 2 = 47
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
Each one has 10 tenths, so 3 ones have 30 tenths.
You can do this by dividing 3 by 1/10.
3/(1/10) = 3/1 * 10/1 = 30/1 = 30

<h3>
Answer: 15 years old</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
m = Maggie's age (some positive whole number)
4m = four times her age
4m-7 = seven years younger than 4m = brother's age
Add up her age (m) and her brother's age (4m-7) to get a sum of 68.
m+(4m-7) = 68
5m-7 = 68
5m = 68+7
5m = 75
m = 75/5
m = 15
Maggie is currently 15 years old.
Her brother is currently 4m-7 = 4*15-7 = 60-7 = 53 years old.
Their current year ages add to: 15+53 = 68 which confirms the answer.
