Answer:
There are 7 chairs in each row.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hue is arranging some number of chairs. If she arranges them in 6 rows of equal lengths then there will be 3 chairs leftover, or she arranges them in 8 rows of that same length then she requires 11 more chairs.
Let us assume that there are P numbers of chairs and there are x chairs in each row.
Therefore, we can write that
6x + 3 = P ....... (1) and
8x = P + 11
⇒ 8x - 11 = P ........ (2)
Now, from equations (1) and (2) we get,
6x + 3 = 8x - 11
⇒ 2x = 14
⇒ x = 7
Therefore, there are 7 chairs in each row. (Answer)
X+X+2+X+4 = 3X + 6 = 126
3X = 126-6 = 120
X = 120/3 = 40
X = 40
X+2 = 42
X+4 = 44
20
5 and 4 have no common factors until they are multiplied by each other. So if you were to convert your existing measurements, you would do the following.
(3/4) x (5/5)
(2/5) x (4/4)
Giving you 15/20 and 8/20
