Question

2. The number of blocks has 9 in the ones place. The number in the hundreds place is one more than the number in the tens place. Those two numbers equal II. How many blocks are there?

Answer 1

Answer:

The number will be "659". A complete solution is provided below.

Let,

The number in the tens place be "x".

The number in hundreds place be "(x+1)".

According to the question, the equation will be:

→ x + x + 1 = 11x+x+1=11

→ 2x+1=112x+1=11

By subtracting "1" from both sides, we get

→ 2x+1-1=11-12x+1−1=11−1

→ 2x=102x=10

→ x = \frac{10}{2}x=

2

10

→ x =5x=5 (tens place)

now,

Hundreds place,

= x+1x+1

= 5+15+1

= 66

Thus the above answer is correct.
