Let L represent Leon's number (presumed to be an integer) and S represent Sara's number (also presumed to be an integer) . From the problem statement, L + 5 = S - 8. Collecting L on one side yields L = S - 13. If negative numbers are excluded, the lowest pair for L,S is 0, 13, but 1,14; 2,15; 3,16 ; .... also work. If the restrictions to integers and non-negatve numbers are removed, the infinity of possible answers is defined by the function L = S - 13

How do you find the average in math?

Add the numbers together, and then divide by the original amount of numbers in the set.To work out the mean (the average) in maths, you have to add up all of the numbers you are averaging, then divide what you now have by the amount of numbers you started with.


What is a mathematical concept?

I don't know I think a mathematical term is when you add up all numbers and then divide with the numbers you started with. I really want to know what a mathematical concept is. I just know what a mathematical term is. Oh also, I searched up mathematical term, so I think that it means to add up all the numbers then divide with the numbers you started with. I know, it makes no sense at all. But that is basically what I know about mathematical concepts... well terms. Oh well, I need to find out what a mathematical concept means anyway.

How can you use the inverse operation to check your answers?

Just apply the inverse operation to your answer. If your answer was correct, and you apply the inverse operation correctly, then you'll end up with the numbers you started with ... the numbers in the original problem. (If it wasn't, or you don't, then you won't.)

How many different math problems equal 352?

Technically, an infinite number. As numbers are infinite, so are the equations that represent these numbers. For example, 537 - 185 = 352. You can always add one to the number you started with, changing the equation to get 352. Since there is an infinite amount of numbers, the equations are also infinite. I get the feeling this a sarcastic question..
