Question

Китайцы вместо букв используют иероглифы. Всего иероглифов около 50000. Ученик за 2 месяца выучил 78 иероглифов, причем за первый месяц на 16 иероглифов меньше, чем за второй. Сколько иероглифов выучил ученик за первый месяц? Сколько за второй?

Answer 1

Х+(х-16)=78
2х-16=78
2х=94
х=47
х-16=47-16=31

Answer 2

Answer:

The student learned 62 characters in the first month and 78 characters in the second month.

Explanation:

The total number of characters learned by the student can be calculated using the given information. Let's denote the number of characters learned in the first month as x and in the second month as y.

According to the given information, the student learned a total of 78 characters in 2 months. Additionally, the number of characters learned in the first month is 16 less than the number learned in the second month.

We can set up the following system of equations to represent the given information: 1. x + y = 78 (total characters learned in 2 months) 2. y - x = 16 (difference in characters learned between the two months)

Solving this system of equations, we find: - x = 62 (number of characters learned in the first month) - y = 78 (number of characters learned in the second month)

Therefore, the student learned 62 characters in the first month and 78 characters in the second month.
