The answer is 48

illustration:

833 is a multiple of 49 which is more than 832

the multiple which is immediately less than 833 is 784

so the difference that must be subtracted is 832- 784 = 48

Of 157 students how many could be put equaly in 5 classes?

If a number is divisible by 5, it either ends in a 0 or a 5. Since this doesn't end in either, we know it isn't divisible by 5. We should find the next lowest number that is divisible by 5. Since 155 ends in a five, we know it is divisible by 5, and because this is the closest number below 157 that is divisible by 155, we know this is the greatest number of students that could be put equally into 5 classes. Alternatively, we can divide 157 by 5, and we get 31.4. Since we only want something that divides evenly by 5, we round this down to 31, then multiply by 5 to get 155.


Why does a rational number plus an irrational number equal an irrational number?

from another wikianswers page: say that 'a' is rational, and that 'b' is irrational. assume that a + b equals a rational number, called c. so a + b = c subtract a from both sides. you get b = c - a. but c - a is a rational number subtracted from a rational number, which should equal another rational number. However, b is an irrational number in our equation, so our assumption that a + b equals a rational number must be wrong.


What equation represents a line that is parallel to the line reprensented by the equation y equals -2 plus 5?

I assume the question should be y = -2x + 5? The equation of a line that is parallel to that line is any line that begins 7 = -2x ... after the -2x any number may be added or subtracted. Parallel lines have the same slope. In the original equation, the slope is -2.


Explain why the sum of three consecutive integers is divisible by three?

Here are some consecutive odd integers. All must follow this form: x+x+2+x+2=3x + 6 6 is divisible by 3. So is 3x. If you add two integers that are divisible by 3, it is still divisible by three. The question is not about odd integers, but consecutive integers. This should be x + x+1 + x+2 =3x+3 A bit simpler would be the three in a row : x-1, x, x+1 which add up to 3x which can be divided by 3.


How do you subtract a whole number from a fraction?

In order to subtract a fraction from a whole number one should take the bottom number from a fraction, for example if the fraction was 1 10th then the bottom number would be 10. The whole number should be divided by the bottom number, then the top number equivalent removed from the total whole number and this will leave the fraction number once the fraction has been subtracted.

How do you know if 54132 is divisible by 6?

To determine if a number is divisible by 6, it must be divisible by both 2 and 3. To determine if a number is divisible by 2, it should be even - in other words, it should end with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. To determine if a number is divisible by 3, the sum of its digits should be divisible by 3. 54,132 is an even number, so it is divisible by 2. 5 + 4 + 1 + 3 + 2 = 15, which is divisible by 3, so 54,132 is divisible by 3. Since 54,132 is divisible by both 2 and 3, it is divisible by 6.
