Question 1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let the number be \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "Then 2/5 of the number is \"%282%2F5%29%2Ax\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B%282%2F5%29%2Ax=210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2B2%2F5%29%2Ax=210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2F5%2B2%2F5%29%2Ax=210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%287%2F5%29%2Ax=210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=210%2F%287%2F5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=210%2A%285%2F7%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=5%2A%28210%2F7%29=5%2A30=150\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The number is \"150\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Question 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since there are 3 consecutive odd integers, there is a smallest one, a largest one, and one in between. Let the integer in between be \"x\". Then the smallest integer will be \"x-2\" and the largest will be \"x%2B2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Their sum is equal to 201, so:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-2%29%2B%28x%29%2B%28x%2B2%29=201\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x=201\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=201%2F3=67\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the largest integer is \"x%2B2\",
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B2=67%2B2=69\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The largest integer is \"69\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Question 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let the smaller number be S and the larger number be L.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The larger number is twice the smaller number:
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=2%2AS\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The larger number diminished by 10 is 2 more than the smaller number:
\n" ); document.write( "\"L-10=S%2B2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substituting \"L=2%2AS\" into this equation, we have:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2AS-10=S%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2AS-S=2%2B10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"S=12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since \"L=2%2AS\",
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=2%2A12=24\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The smaller number is \"12\" and the larger number is \"24\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Question 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let A be the number of 20-pound notes and B be the number of 50-pound notes.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2BB=31\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"20%2AA%2B50%2AB=1830\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substituting \"A=31-B\" into the second equation,
\n" ); document.write( "\"20%2A%2831-B%29%2B50%2AB=1830\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"620-20%2AB%2B50%2AB=1830\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2850-20%29%2AB=1830-620\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"30%2AB=1210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=1210%2F30=121%2F3=40%2B1%2F3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then \"A=31-B=31-%2840%2B1%2F3%29=-%289%2B1%2F3%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since A and B must necessarily be non-negative integers, there are no valid solutions to this problem. Also, by observation, the total amount of money in the cash box can only range from \"31%2A20=620\" to \"31%2A50=1550\", and \"1830\" as given in the question is outside that range.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Question 5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let the smallest integer be \"x\". Then the middle-valued integer will be \"x%2B2\", and the largest integer will be {{[x+4}}}.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B%28x%2B2%29%2B%28x%2B4%29=x%2B50\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x%2B6=x%2B50\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x=50-6=44\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=44%2F2=22\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B2=22%2B2=24\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B4=22%2B4=26\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The integers are \"22\", \"24\" and \"26\".
