Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 3) = 12
Multiply 3 by both numbers in the parentheses.
3x + 9 = 12
Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation.
3x = 3
Divide 3 from both sides of the equation.
x = 1
The situation above described that Jeff added two - thirds of 128 to the
flour. The numerical value of (2/3)(128) is 85.33 grams. The recipe
says to add only 32 grams of vanilla flour.
Hence, Jeff went over the
prescribed amount.
To determine the excess amount, subtract 32 from 85.33 which has a numerical value of 53.33 grams.

Rounding a decimal to the nearest whole number
If you have a decimal that is greater than or equal to 5 in the tenths place then you round up. Ex: 5.8 would be rounded to 6, 1.5 would be rounded to 2.
If you have a decimal that is less than or equal to 4 in the tenths place then you round down. Ex: 5.1 would be rounded 5, 1.2 would be rounded to 1.
Since 0 is in the tenth’s place we round down to 7.
