A printer has two font sizes. Large font is 1800 words per page. Small font is 2400 words per page. If allotted 21 pages, then how many pages must be in smaller font size?
no idea. How many words are to be printed on the 21 pages?
OK, 24,000 Multiplied by 21.
To determine the number of pages that must be in the smaller font size, we can use a simple mathematical equation.
Let's assume that the number of pages in large font size is 'x'. Since there are a total of 21 pages, the number of pages in small font size would be 21 minus 'x'.
Now, let's calculate the total number of words in large font size by multiplying the number of pages in large font size (x) by the number of words per page (1800):
Total number of words in large font size = x * 1800
Similarly, we can calculate the total number of words in small font size by multiplying the number of pages in small font size (21 - x) by the number of words per page (2400):
Total number of words in small font size = (21 - x) * 2400
Since the total number of words should be the same, we can equate the two equations:
x * 1800 = (21 - x) * 2400
Now we can solve the equation to get the value of 'x' and find the number of pages in the smaller font size.
