4 0

Let x be the smallest number.
x＋(x＋1)＋(x＋2)＝384
3x＋3＝384
3x＝381
x＝127
The three consecutive numbers are 127, 128 and 129.

A factory makes 1200 shirts every 6 hours.the factory makes shirts for 9 hours a workday. what is the fewest number of workdays

Dominik [7]

1. Divide the target number of shirts, 12,600 by the company's rate of making the shirts. That is,
number of hours = 12,600 shirts/ (1200 shirts/6 hours)
= 63 hours
2. Determine the number of workdays for them to complete the shirts by dividing 63 hours by 9 hours/workday. This will give us an answer of 7 workdays.

HELP ME PLEASE!! Word problem, what's wrong? explain.

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

She made a mistake in Step 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 through 6 are correct. Only from Step 6 to Step 7 the problem comes in: both sides of the equation are multiplied by x, however the x on the left side, by error, becomes 1. The correct state in Step 7 should look like this:

$x(\frac{1}{2}P-x)=256$
