As summer approaches the size of Matt's wardrobe increases weekly by 6%. Assume that Matt's wardrobe contained 112 pieces in March, and let GN denote the number of pieces in his wardrobe N months after March.
Give an explicit formula for GN.

The surface area would be 576 because you multiply all the numbers then multiply that number by 6

Okay so n is going to represent our first number. since the second number of five times greater than n, the second number will be represented as 5n. for us to figure out the two  numbers we need to have  the value of n first. this is going to be done by adding the two numbers together, n and 5n. it can be simplified as 6n, which the problem states is equal to 72. divide 72 by 6n and you can solve for n.  n+5n=726n=72n=(72/6)n=12  now that we know the value of n, we have to multiply 5 times 12 which equals 60. so our two numbers/integers are 12 and 60
