Question

The sum of two consecutive of 5 is 55. Find the multiples

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the first multiple be x

Second multiple = x + 5

ACQ

X + X + 5= 55

2 X + 5 =55

2 X = 55 - 5

2 X = 50

X = 25

First multiple = 25

Therefore second multiple will be (X + 5) = (25 + 5) = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

GIVEN :

Sum of two consecutive multiples of 5 = 55

Let the multiples be x and x + 5

According to the problem,

x + x + 5 = 55

2x + 5 = 55

2x = 55 - 5

x = 50/2

x = 25

One multiple = x = 25

Other = x + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30

Therefore, the multiples are 25 and 30.
