120/100 = x/15
100x = 1800 (Divide by 100 on both sides)
x = 18
The children brought 2+1+114=414 cups of flour and 14+12+34=112 cups of butter.
They have enough flour for
414÷34===174×43173523
batches and they have enough butter for
112÷13===32×3192412
batches, so the butter is the limiting factor. Thus, they can make 4 whole batches of a dozen cookies each.
Sorry sorry I need to answer a question to ask one
Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5)
15*[(2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5)] <em>[Multiply both sides by 15 in order to convert the fractions to whole numbers]</em>
(15/3)*2x +15*10 = (15/5)x + (15/5)*36
5*2x + 150 = 3x + 3*36
10x +150 = 3x + 108
7x = -42
x = -6
===
<u>Check:</u>
Does (2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5) work for x = -6?
(2(-6)/3) + 10 = (-6/5) + (36/5) ?
-4 + 10 = (30/5) ?
6 = 6 YES
