6x+1 = 3(2x-4)
-4(x+3) = 4(x-1)
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call our fraction x.
x=3.777......
We want to get rid of the repeating stuff. If we multiply our fraction by 10, we get 10x=37.7777.
We see that if we subtract x from 10x, the repeating numbers will be cancelled out. Let's do this.
10x=37.7777
-
x=3.77777
=
9x=34
We divide both sides by 9.
x=34/9=3 7/9.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:60 male staff
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, there are 96 female staff. The ratio of male to female is 3:4. We’re going to use a proportion which looks like this. 3/4 = x/96. X is a variable that takes the place of the male staff since we don’t know what it is. Now, the question is what do we do to get from 4 to 96. So 96/4 = 24, so 4 x 20 = 96. To keep this ratio equivalent whatever you do to the top you have to do to the bottom so 4 x 20 = 96 and 3 x 20 = 60. So there are 60 male staff.
