Let's say the first number is "a"
the next consecutive can just be "a+1" and the next, you guessed it, "a+2"
the two smaller ones are a and a+1, the larger one is a+2
now, the product of "a" and "a+1" equals 5 times "a+2" but less by 5
thus a(a + 1) = 5(a + 2) - 5 <----- solve for "a"
Answer:
$8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 increase 60% =
5 × (1 + 60%) = 5 × (1 + 0.6) = 8
When simplified all of them equal 3/1. They are asking you to just chose 4 of them. Hope that helps!
96 pints, because 1 gallon equals 8 pints, so 12 X 8 equals 96.
