1. Let the three consecutive multiples of 8 be x,x+8 and x+16. According to question, x+x+8+x+16=888 ⇒ 3x+24=888 ⇒ 3x+24-24=888-24 [Subtracting 24 from both sides] ⇒ 3x=864 ⇒ 3x/3 = 864/3 ⇒ x=288 Hence, first multiple of 8 = 288, second multiple of 8 = 288 + 8 = 296 and third multiple of 8 = 288 + 16 =Read more

    Let the three consecutive multiples of 8 be x,x+8 and x+16.
    According to question, x+x+8+x+16=888
    ⇒ 3x+24=888
    ⇒ 3x+24-24=888-24 [Subtracting 24 from both sides]
    ⇒ 3x=864
    ⇒ 3x/3 = 864/3
    ⇒ x=288
    Hence, first multiple of 8 = 288, second multiple of 8 = 288 + 8 = 296 and third multiple of 8 = 288 + 16 = 304.

  2. Let the three consecutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2. According to the question, x+x+1+x+2=51 ⇒ 3x+3=51 ⇒ 3x+3-3=51-3 [Subtracting 3 from both sides] ⇒ 3x=48 ⇒ 3x/3=48/3 Dividing both sides by 3] ⇒ x=16 Hence, first integer = 16, second integer = 16 + 1 = 17 and third integer = 16 + 2 = 18. for moreRead more

    Let the three consecutive integers be x,x+1 and x+2.
    According to the question, x+x+1+x+2=51
    ⇒ 3x+3=51
    ⇒ 3x+3-3=51-3 [Subtracting 3 from both sides]
    ⇒ 3x=48
    ⇒ 3x/3=48/3 Dividing both sides by 3]
    ⇒ x=16
    Hence, first integer = 16, second integer = 16 + 1 = 17 and third integer = 16 + 2 = 18.

  3. Let the two numbers be 5x and 3x According to question, 5x-3x=18 ⇒ 2x=18 ⇒ 2x/2=18/2 [Dividing both sides by 2] ⇒ x=9 Hence, first number = 5 x 9 = 45 and second number = 3 x 9 = 27. for more answers vist to: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-8/maths/chapter-2/

    Let the two numbers be 5x and 3x
    According to question, 5x-3x=18
    ⇒ 2x=18
    ⇒ 2x/2=18/2 [Dividing both sides by 2]
    ⇒ x=9
    Hence, first number = 5 x 9 = 45 and second number = 3 x 9 = 27.

  4. Sum of two number = 95 Let the first number be x, then another number be x+15. According to the question, x+x+15=95 ⇒ 2x+15=95 ⇒ 2x+15-15=95-15 [Subtracting 15 from both sides] ⇒ 2x=80 ⇒ 2x/2=80/2 [Dividing both sides by 2] ⇒ x=40 So, the first number = 40 and another number = 40 + 15 = 55 Hence, thRead more

    Sum of two number = 95
    Let the first number be x, then another number be x+15.
    According to the question, x+x+15=95
    ⇒ 2x+15=95
    ⇒ 2x+15-15=95-15 [Subtracting 15 from both sides]
    ⇒ 2x=80
    ⇒ 2x/2=80/2 [Dividing both sides by 2]
    ⇒ x=40

    So, the first number = 40 and another number = 40 + 15 = 55
    Hence, the two numbers are 40 and 55.

  5. ⇒ 62/15=4/3+x+x ⇒ 62/15=4/3+2x ⇒ 62/15-4/3=4/3-4/3+2x [Subtracting 4/3 from both the sides] ⇒ 62-20/15=2x ⇒ 42/15=2x ⇒ 42/15x2=2x/2 [Dividing both sides by 2] ⇒ 7/5=x ⇒ x=7/5cm Hence, each equal side of an isosceles triangle is x=7/5cm. for more answers vist to: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-sRead more

    ⇒ 62/15=4/3+x+x
    ⇒ 62/15=4/3+2x
    ⇒ 62/15-4/3=4/3-4/3+2x [Subtracting 4/3 from both the sides]
    ⇒ 62-20/15=2x ⇒ 42/15=2x
    ⇒ 42/15×2=2x/2 [Dividing both sides by 2]
    ⇒ 7/5=x ⇒ x=7/5cm
    Hence, each equal side of an isosceles triangle is x=7/5cm.
