Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

5 friends.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of friends,

Since, each had 2/5 of a bag of peanuts left over,

Thus, the total numbers of bag left = 2/5 of the number of friends,

$=(2)/(5)x$

According to the question,

$(2)/(5)x=2$

$\implies x = 5$

Hence, there were 5 friends.

Answer 2

Answer: the answer is 5.
Since each friend had 2/5 left, if you multiply that fraction by 5, you get 2.

48, 49, 50

Step-by-step explanation:

$n,\ n+1,\ n+2-\text{three consecutive integers}\n\n\text{The equation:}\n\nn+(n+2)=3(n+1)-49\qquad\text{use distributive property}\n\n2n+2=3n+3-49\qquad\text{subtract 3n from both sides}\n\n-n+2=-46\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\n\n-n=-48\qquad\text{change the signs}\n\nn=48\n\n48+1=49\n\n48+2=50$
