-2/3 - 5/6
We need common denominators so, since 3 can go into 6, we only need to multiply the first fraction by 2.
= -2 x 2 / 3x2 - 5/6
= -4 / 6 - 5/6
We only subtract the numbers that are in the numerators,
= -4-5 / 6
= -9/6
Both nine and six are divisible by 3, so to put into lowest terms...
=-9÷3 / 6÷3
= -3/2 <--- Final Answer
ab + ac + ad is the same as a(b + c + d) according to the distributive property
Answer:
Number of juice boxes people drank at Williams party = 91
Step-by-step explanation:
Total juice boxes Williams bought = 114
Juice boxes left over at the party = 23
How many juice boxes did people drink at William's party?
Number of juice boxes people drank at Williams party = Total juice boxes Williams bought - Juice boxes left over at the party
= 114 - 23
= 91
Number of juice boxes people drank at Williams party = 91
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of novels
y = number of dictionaries
x = 8y
88x + 208y = 13680
now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us
88(8y) + 208y = 13680
704y + 208y = 13680
912y = 13680
y = 13680/912 = 15
x = 8y = 8×15 = 120
so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.
