Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of ages= 40

Let the sons age be x

Fathers age = 3 times x or ,3x

So 3x+x=40

4x= 40

x= 40/4

= 10

Therefore the fathers age = 3x

= 3*10

= 30

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1: divide 32 by each factor

2:ensure that the answer is a whole number

3: 6, when calculated gives you 5.3(and the threes will go on)

4:You get your answer

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors listed shows that 1 x 32 = 32, 2x 16= 32, 4 x 8= 32

BUT! When we get to 6 it does not have a number to multiply to that is a whole number. For example, 32/6= 5.333 which is not a whole number. Factors have to be whole numbers and no decimals! So, 6 should be removed from the list to make it accurate!

How do i solve x/2+1/3=x/3+1/2

Answers

x/2+1/3=x/3+1/2
x/2=x/3+1/2-1/3
x/2 - x/3 = 3/6 - 2/6
x/2 - x/3 = 1/6
3x/6 - 2x/6 = 1/6
x/6 = 1/6
x = 1/6 * 6

x = 1

(1)/(2)x + (1)/(3) = (1)/(3)x + (1)/(2) \n(1)/(6)x + (1)/(3) = (1)/(2) \n(1)/(6)x = (1)/(6) \n6((1)/(6)x)  = 6((1)/(6)) \nx = 1
