Just simple proportions:
12(apples) x(apples)
-------------- = --------------
4(oranges) 7(oranges)
12*7 = 84
84/4 = 21
There are 21 apples + 7 oranges = 28 apples and oranges!
<h3>Answer: Commutative Property (choice C)</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
Here are all of the justifications for each step
- Step 1. None needed. This is the original expression
- Step 2. Distributive property
- Step 3. Multiply (the 3 and 5 multiply to 15)
- Step 4. Commutative property. Specifically, this is the commutative property of addition which allows us to add any two numbers in any order we want. In this case, the -15 and 4x terms swap places.
- Step 5. Associative property. The parenthesis group the first two terms away from the third term.
- Step 6. Combine like terms. Both 3x and 4x have an x only so they are like terms that combine to 7x. You can think of it as 3+4 = 7, then you just tack an x onto everything to get 3x+4x = 7x.
The answer is B. 100/5=20 hope i helped
Answer:
-21 over 24 should be equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Equivalent fractions are simple. To find an equivalent fraction simply multiply the denominator AND the numerator by any natural number other than 1 (a natural number is any number greater than zero, numbers that ARE zero or less AREN'T natural numbers i.e. 0, -1, -2, -3, you get the point)
8 centimeters would be your answer
