21.625 is your answer to 865/40
The answer is 90/91. 6 1/2 - 7/8 divided by 5 11/16. Turn 6 1/2 and 5 11/16 to an improper fraction. 6 1/2= 13/2. 5/11= 91/16. Then you have to get each fraction to have equal denominators. All of them can have a denominator of 16. So you times everything to get a denominator of 16. 13/2= 104/16. 7/8=14/16. 91/16 stays the same because the denominator is already 16. Next you subtract 104/16 and 14/16 and get 45/8.( because you need to put it in simplest form.) Lastly you divide 45/8 by 91/16 and get 90/91.
The answer to the question is 5
Answers: The page numbers are 11 and 12
==========================================================
Explanation:
Consecutive integers are ones that follow immediately after another. For example, the set {7,8,9,10} are consecutive.
Let,
- x = first page, some positive whole number
- x+1 = second page, follows immediately after page x
Adding those two said pages will lead to 23
first + second = 23
(x) + (x+1) = 23
2x+1 = 23
2x = 23-1
2x = 22
x = 22/2
x = 11 is the first page
x+1 = 11+1 = 12 is the second page
Check: 11+12 = 23 which confirms the answers.
