Algebra.Com's Answer #77372 by solver91311(24713)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given that your number is a multiple of 150, you know that the number is greater than or equal to 150. Given that the number has 3 digits, you know that the number is less than 1000. The multiples of 150 between those limits are: 150, 300, 450, 600, 750, and 900.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Of these choices, two have 9 as a sum of the digits, 450 and 900. These two numbers also have 9 as a factor. 9 X 50 = 450, and 9 X 100 = 900. (In fact, any number that has 9 or a multiple of 9 as a sum of the digits is evenly divisible by 9). Hence, your problem has two equally valid answers, namely 450 and 900.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you were expected to come up with one unique answer, then perhaps you forgot to provide one of the conditions.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
