my ones digit is 5 more than my tens digit. i am greater than 25 and less than 35
i don't understand?
26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34
Which of those numbers is described?
The ones digits in the above numbers are:
6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
Which of those is 5 more than the other digit?
i keep thinking of 5 in the ones digit and the tens digit can either be a 10 or 20 but that cant be because its more than 25 and less than 35. it has to be easy and im not getting it.
27 is between 26 and 35.
7 is 5 more than 2.
Therefore, the number must be 27.
o my gosh!! i see. that was easy. thank you so much.
:-) You're very welcome.
we had this for homework yesterday and I came up with 27 as well
It can go either way as long as the 1's digit is 5 more greater then the 10's digit. You say its 27 cause 7 is 5 more then 2 but isn't 8, 5 more then 3? Or 9, 5 more then 4? So on & so on?
To solve this problem, we can start by understanding the given information.
The first piece of information is that the ones digit is 5 more than the tens digit. Let's represent the ones digit by x and the tens digit by y. According to the given information, we can write the equation: x = y + 5.
The second piece of information is that the number is greater than 25 and less than 35. From this information, we can conclude that the tens digit must be 2 since the number is greater than 25. So, we have y = 2.
Substituting y = 2 into the equation x = y + 5, we get x = 2 + 5, which simplifies to x = 7.
Therefore, the number is 27, where the tens digit (y) is 2 and the ones digit (x) is 7.
