Answer:

Let p be the number of pencils.

3(14-p)=30+p

42-3p=30+p

4p=12, p=3.

So Peter ends up with 33 and Tony with 11. 3*11=33, so that confirms that Tony gave Peter 3 pencils.

A piece of wire is 8/9 meter long broke into two pieces. One piece is 2/3 meter long. How long is the other?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>2/9 is the answer.</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>1. First, make an equation.</u></em>

<em><u>Given:</u></em>

8/9 = length of wire

2/3 = length of a part of the wire

E = 8/9-2/3

<em><u>Unknown:</u></em>

Second part of wire

<em><u>2. Make the numbers have equal denominators</u></em>

2/3 * 3/3

= 6/9

<em><u>3. Solve</u></em>

8/9 - 6/9

= 2/9

Hope this helped,
