Hi, my niece has some homework which ive been helping her with and i can work out the answer easy enough but by using trial and error really. I was wondering whether there was a way or formula which can be used to solve the problem properly? So she knows for future questions.
Q: in a sequence of 7 consecutive numbers a quarter of the smallest number is five less than a third of the largest number. What is the value of the smallest number?
