Answer:

x = -3/b

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(bx-5)=16

Divide each side by -2

-2(bx-5)/-2=16/-2

bx-5 = -8

Add 5 to each side

bx-5+5 = -8+5

bx = -3

Divide each side by b

bx/b = -3/b

x = -3/b

If b = 3

x = -3/3

x = -1

240 is 60% of what number?
Brums [2.3K]
Hi there! To find the answer to that question, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this: 240/x = 60/100. This is because we're looking for the whole and we already know the part, which is 240. Cross multiply the values in order to get 24,000 = 60x. Now, divide each side by 60 to isolate the variable. When you do, you get x = 400. You can check this by dividing and then multiplying that quotient by 100. 240/400 is 0.6 and 0.6 * 100 is 60. That makes 60%. There. 240 is 60% of 400.

How do you know whether a number is a multiple of another number
vovikov84 [41]
You would know when one number is also a multiple when the other number is a factor of it as well. For example when we see a prime number like 2, there are  no factors for this number so it is just a multiple of 1 and 2. 
However for numbers like 15 and 25.
We would know ( if you have your times tables memorized) that 15 is a multiple of 1,3, and 5 and 15. 25 is a multiple of 1, 5, and 25.
