4- 2/3 (4-1/6) divided by 3/4
parenthesis first
4 - 2/3 (3 5/6) divided by 3/4
change to an improper fraction (6*3+5)/6
4 - 2/3 ( 23/6)divided by 3/4
4 - 46/18 divide by3/4
copy dot flip
4 - 46/18 * 4/3
4 - 23/9 * 4/3
4 - 92/27
get a common denominator of 27
4*27/27 -92/27
108/27 - 92/27
16/27
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!

Answer:
Associative Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
I sure hope none is an answer because none of these work!
Step-by-step explanation:
C = 59 (F - 32)
(C/59) = F - 32
F = C/59 + 32
So no :(
m = x + y + z3
y = m - x - z3
So no :((
s = r^2 - 1
r = sqrt(s+1)
So no :000
A = 12(a+b)
A = 12a + 12b
12b = A - 12a
b = A/12 - a
So no :00(((
m = x + y^2
y = sqrt (m-x)
AND no :|
