Answer: 3 kids take 3 pieces of candy each
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children that took 3 pieces is x ( total take 3*x pieces of candy)
Number of children that took 5 pieces is y ( total take 5*y pieces of candy)
1 child took 1 piece that actually means that x+y=18 and 3*x+5*y=84.
( Because total number of all kids is 19. We just deduct one kid (Let his name is John) who took only 1 candy. So we have 19-1 =18 kids without John. The similar is with the candies. Total number is 85. We deduct 1 piece which John has taken. )
So we have 2 equations or the system of 2 equations:
1). x+y=18
2). 3*x +5*y=84
Multuply both sides of equation 1) by 3
We have 3*x+3*y=18*3
Deduct 3*y from both sides of this equation
3*x+3*y-3*y=54-3*y
3*x=54-3*y
Substitute 3*x in equation 2). by 54-3*y
2) 54-3*y+5*y=84
2*y=30
y=15 ( kids take 5 pieces of candy each)
Using equation 1) find x
x+15=18
x=3 (kids take 3 pieces of candy each)
It took them 4 days to install 480 chairs which means if they were working at a constant rate they got 120 chairs installed daily. with 360 chairs left that means in 3 days they will finish. so overall, it took the workers 7 days to finish, or a week.
Hello,
The answer is "4 ways".
Reason:
You can write it these ways:
= 5^12 / 5^4
= 5^9 / 5
= 5^10 / 5^2
<span>= 5^15 / 5^ 7
Therefore you can write it 4 different ways....
If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!
Hope this helps!
