Answer:
32 pennies to each friend and 314 pennies remaining
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first step, we need to divide 128 by 4 to get the amount of pennies she gave to each friend: 128/4 = 32
For the second step, we need to subtract 128 from 442 to find out how many pennies she has left: 442-128 = 314
Hope this helps!
You can work this out by rearranging the equation and isolating the x.
4x + 12 = 36
4x = 36 - 12 (I moved the +12 to the other side, which means it becomes -12)
4x = 24 (36 - 12 = 24)
x = 24 / 4 (You need to isolate the x, and because it was being multiplied by 4, I divided both sides by 4 to leave me with just x)
x = 6 (24 divided by 4 is 6).
Not sure on the number listed as median ? 27.227.2? Please clarify.
