Take out the factor of 3 from both numbers
(69)/3 = 23
(12)/3 = 4
69 + 12 can be rewritten as 3(23 + 4)
~
A + b + c = 72
a = b - 1
c = b + 1
(b - 1) + b + (b + 1) = 72
Simplify
3b = 72
b = 24
a = 24 - 1
a = 23
Answer:
5,789
Step-by-step explanation:
I got 5,789 because there are 9 one digit numbers. 1-9 -> 9x1=9. There are 90 two digit numbers. (10-99)-> 90x2=180. There are 900 three digit numbers. (100-999)-> 900x3=2700. There are 725 four digit numbers. (1000-1724)-> 724x4= 2900. Then, I added 9+180+2700+2900=5789.
In conclusion, the total number of digits required in numbering a book that has 1724 pages is 5789.
