The left and right page numbers of an open book are two consecutive integers whose sum is 355. Find these page numbers.

177 and 178

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's let the first page number be n. Then the next page number must be (n+1).

And together, we know that they total 355. So:

Combine like terms:

Subtract 1 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

So, the first page number n is 177. And the other is 178.

And we're done!

177 and 178

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are consecutive numbers and add to 355, it means that 2 times their average will also add the 355. So to find their average, we can divide 355 by 2 which gives us 177.5

If we know that this is the number exactly between them and they are consecutive, then we just find the nearest whole number either side: 177 and 178, which gives us our page numbers.

answer: what equations are there

step-by-step explanation:

7 weeks

step-by-step explanation:

convert each fraction to the least common multiple of 20, so 3/4 = 15/20 & 1/10 = 2/20, then divide 15 by 2 and you get a little over 7, so the food will last 7 weeks.
