X/8 - 10 = x/3
bring the values with the variable on one side
x/3 - x/8 = 10
find a common denominator and subtract these fractions
8x/24 - 3x/24 = -10
now subtract fractions
8x - 3x = 5x
5x/24 = -10
multiply both sides by 24
5x = -240
divide both sides by 5
x = -48
the number is -48
Answer:
let the numbers be, x and x+1 ( as it is consecutive number the next number will have 1 more than the number )
sum = 41
so, x + ( x + 1 ) = 41
x + x + 1 = 41
2x + 1 = 41
2x = 41 -1 = 40
2x = 40
x = 40/2 = 20
x = 20
x + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21
so the consecutive numbers whose sum is 40 are, 20 and 21
hope this answer helps you.....
