I'm sorry, I was just trying to help you out. The next one might be a tough one.

Next: The difference between the squares of two consecutive positive whole numbers is 25. What are the two numbers?

I only have the 3 I took away.

Next: A pound of apples and a pound of bananas cost $3.65, a pound of bananas and a pound of cherries cost $4.95, and a pound of apples and a pound of cherries cost $6.10. What is the price per pound of each fruit?

Apples----$2.40 per pound
Bananas---$1.25 per pound
Cherries---$3.70 per pound

(And some folks think that algebra is useless... laugh )

Great job Shed, it took me forever to figure that one out.

Next: What number gives the same result when it is added to five as when it is multiplied by five?

I am an underground seed.Some like to spread me around. If you eat me raw I'll make you sick. If you're small we're often called by the same name. What am I?
