Answer:

730, 735, 740

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive multiples of 5 be, x, x+5 and x+10

Given,

x + x+5 + x+10 = 2205

3x + 15 = 2205

Subtract 15 from both sides,

3x = 2205 - 15

3x = 2190

Divide both sides by 3,

x = 2190/3 = 730

So, x= 730

x+5 = 735

x+10 = 740

Beaker A contains 1 liter which is 15 percent oil and the rest is vinegar, thoroughly mixed up. Beaker B contains 2 liters which

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Add 1.25 litres of oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contents in beaker A implies;

15% of oil in 1 litre = 0.15 litres of oil

So that, there are 0.15 litres of oil and 0.85 litres of vinegar in beaker A.

Contents in beaker B implies:

55% of oil in 2 litres = 1.1 litres of oil

So that, thee are 1.1 litres of oil and 0.9 litres of vinegar in beaker B.

Half of contents of B poured into A implies that beaker A now contains:

0.15 litres + 0.55 litres = 0.7 litres of oil

0.85 litres + 0.45 litres = 1.3 litres of vinegar

The percentage of oil in A now = $\frac{0.7}{2}$ x 100%

= 35%

To increase the percentage of oil to 60%, then:

0.7 litres + 1.25 litres = 1.95 litres of oil

But the new total litres of the content in beaker A = 3.25 litres

So that;

$\frac{1.95}{3.25}$ x 100% = 60%

Therefore, to produce a mixture which is 60% oil, add 1.25 litres of oil.

There were 63 equal piles of plantain fruit put together and 7 single fruits. They were divided evenly among 23 travelers. What

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

There are 28 fruits in each pile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x denote the number of fruits in each pile and y denote the number of fruits that every traveler receive.

Consider the diophantine equation:

$63x + 7 = 23y\\63x-23y = -7$

We obtain the greatest common divisor of (63,-23).

The greatest common divisor f 63 and -23 is 1.

Therefore, there exist $\alpha,\beta$ such that

$-23\alpha+63\beta=1$

By applying extended Euclidean Algorithm, we have,

$1 = (1\times 6)+(-1\times 5)\\1 = (1\times 17)+(3\times 6)\\1 = (3\times 23)+(-4\times 17)\\1 = (-4\times 40)+(7\times 23)\\1 = (7\times 63)+(-11\times 40)\\1 = (-11\times -23)+(-4\times 63)$

$1 = (-11\times -23) + (-4\times 63)$

Multiplying -7 on both sides, we get,

$-7 = (77\times -23) + 28\times 63)$

Thus, we get,

$x = 28\\y=77$

Thus, there are 28 fruits in each pile.
