the average of 4 number is 56.the first no is 5 more than the second,the 3 no is half of the 2 and the 4 no is 3 times the sum of the first and second nos. Find the numbers
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a,b,c and d be the numbers
According to given question let us form some equations,
1. a+b+c+d/4 = 56-----------> 1 eqn
2.a = b+5--------------------> 2eqn
3. c =(1/2).b------------------> 3 eqn
4. d = 3. (a+b)-------------> 4 eqn
------------------------------------------------------------
Now let us start solving the equations,
Substitute (2) into (4)
d = 3.(b+5+b)
d = 3.(2b+5)
d = 6b + 10
-------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute (2), (3), and (4) into (1)
a+b+c+d/4 = 56
[b+5+b+(1/2).b+6b+15]/4 = 56
Multiply both sides by 4
(17/2).b+20 = 224
Multiply both sides by 2
17b + 40 = 448
17b = 408
b = 408/17
b = 24
substitute in 2nd eqn
a=b+5
a = 24+5
a = 29
substitue in 3rd eqn
c = (1/2).b
c = (1/2).24
c = 12
substitute in 4th eqn
d = 6(24) +5
d= 144+ 15
d = 159
The numbers are 29, 24, 12, and 159
-------------------------------------------------------------
Check:
29+24+12+159/4 = 56
224/4 = 56
56 = 56
Hence proved
Answer:
First number = 29
First number = 29Second number = 24
First number = 29Second number = 24Third number = 12
First number = 29Second number = 24Third number = 12Fourth number = 159
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the second number be x.
So, first number = x+5
and third number = x/2
and fourth number = 3×(x+5+x) = 3×(2x+5) = 6x+15
So,
Therefore, First number = 29
Second number = 24
Third number = 12
Fourth number = 159
