Answer:
3 3/4 cups flour
Step-by-step explanation:
If Marie needs 2.25 cups of flour for 36 dozen cookies, then our equations would be:
2.25f = 36
f = 16
3.75f = 60
8/5x = 1
or
1.6x = 1
Work:
Add 7/3x and 1/3x to make 8/3x. Equation: 8/3x = 1 + 5/3x
Divide 8/3x by 5/3x, looks like 8 over 3 times 3 over 5. 3s cancel each other out, leaving 8/5x. Equation: 8/5x = 1
If needed to be simplified, 8/5 = 1.6.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, AM=x+8
or, A=x+8-M......eqn (i)
MB=6x-2
or, B=6x-2-M......eqn (ii)
Now,
from eqn (i) and (ii)
x+8-M=6x-2-M
or, 8+2=6x-x-M+M
or, 10=5x
or, 10÷5=x
therefore, x=2
Again,
MB=6x-2
=6×2-2
=12-2
=10
is it correct
