Least common multiple of 6, 30, and 60 also ?

Question

Find a number such that 119 is six less than five times the number?

Answer 1

Least common multiple of 6, 30, and 60 is

2 and 3

2 * 3 = 6

2*3*5 = 30

2*2*3*5 = 60

Number should be six less than 119

let the number be x.

so x = 119 - 6 = 113.

now x should be five times the number

the required x is 113/5 = 22.6

so the required number is 22.

Answer 2

least common multiple of 6, 30, and 60 = 60

Answer 3

"least common multiple" is the lowest number that all three of those numbers will multiply evenly into.  In this case, the least common multiple would be 60, because 6, 30, & 60 all go into it evenly.  

For your second question, you simply add 6 to 119, then divide that total by 5.  119 + 6 = 125;  125/5 = 25.  Your answer is 25.

Hope that helps.

Answer 4

60= 10 * 6 = 2*30 =1 * 60

119 + 6 = 5 x = 125

x = 25

Answer 5

LCM is 60...

Basic algebra:

Let x = your number

5x - 6 = 119

5x = 125

x = 25

Your number is 25.

Answer 6

119 = 5x -6

so 5x = 125

x = 25
