Answer:
3c=273
c=91
2c= 212
C= 106
c= 91+ 106= 197
so they will need 197 canoes total
Why:
So first you have to determine a set variable to represent the number of canoes, I chose C. Then you make an equation to represent the number of canoes 273 people will use if they group into 3's, from this I got 3c=273. Solve for C and get 91.
The remainder of the group which is 485-273= 212 will use canoes in groups of 2's. To represent this, 2c=212. Solve for C and get 106. Combine 106 and 91 to get the total number of canoes.
Answer:
28/21
Step-by-step explanation:
28/21 is the equivalent to 4/3.
We know this is the fraction we are looking for because 28 + 21 = 49
Hope that helps!
16^2 is 16•16 so x would equal 256
1. -18 +15x = 3(4x-6) + 3x
-18 + 15x = 12x - 18 + 3x
-18 + 3x = -18 + 3x
3x = 3x
x = All Real Numbers (because we don't know what x is since the equation is 3x = 3x, we can assume that it is all "real" numbers)
2. -10 + 5x = 5(x - 3) + 5
-10 + 5x = 5x - 15 + 5
-10 = -10
Answer Undefined (because the x coefficients canceled out, we don't know what x even is, so we can claim it as undefined.)
