The answer to the question above is option D: <span>18/ 9-a. If we try to analyze the word phrase above, this is the algebraic expression that matches it. When we say quotient, this is the number or the result of the division between two numbers. So the quotient of 18 and 9, this means that the answer of 18 divided by 9. And then, less than a. Less than a here means subtraction or minus. Therefore, this makes -a. </span>

Answer:

He can make a cake that serves 24 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gareth has 13 eggs, but only 2 are needed for 4 servings. 13 divided by 2 equals 6.5. We can't serve half of a person, so there will be a large cake equivalent to the size of 6 small cakes. Since 1 small cake serves 4 people, and Gareth's large cake is 6 times the size of a small cake, Gareth's cake can serve a total of 24 people. Now that is one big cake!

Answer: 2/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so the speed now is 850, which is 850/340 = 2.5 times the original speed

Since It's 2.5 times the original speed,

2.5x = 5/3

so x = 5/3/2.5 = 2/3
