Subtract the y then add the 4 to the other side so y=0
the 5 is in the hundreds place, the 7 is in the tens place and the 2 is in the ones place
The answer is in the photo.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given problem is to find nearest number,
= 8888888/2915
quotient = 3049
remainder= 1053
Now, 2915-1053 = 1862
8888888+1862 = 8890750
8888888-1053 = 8887835
Two numbers nearest to 8888888 which are exactly divisible by 2915 is 8887835 and 8890750
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Number of children = x = 59
Number of Adults = y = 166
On a certain hot summer's day, 225 people used the public swimming pool.
x + y = 225
x = 225 - y
The daily prices are $1.75 for children and $2.00 for adults. The receipts for admission totaled $435.25.
$1.75 × x + $2.00 × y = $435.25
1.75x + 2y = 435.25
We substitute 225 - y for x
Hence:
1.75(225 - y ) + 2y = 435.25
393.75 - 1.75y + 2y = 435.25
Collect like terms
-1.75y + 2y = 435.25 - 393.75
0.25y = 41.5
y = 41.5/0.25
y = 166 Adults
Note that:
x = 225 - y
x = 225 - 166
x = 59 children
Hence, the number of children is 59 and the number of Adults is 166
