-x/8<-1/2. Use the reverse order of operations to solve this. So, as both sides are negative, multiply them by -1 to get you to x/8>1/2, as multiplying by a negative flips the symbol. Solve that by multiplying 1/2 to 8/1. Multiply the numerators and denominators, to give you 8/2. Simplified, x>4
A basket contains 12 apples and some other fruit
40% of the total fruit are apples...so 40% of the total fruit is 12..

x = 12 / 0.40
x = 30....and u have 30 pieces of fruit in the basket
