Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
First represent this with numbers. Less means subtraction -, times means multiplication *, is means equals =.
And let's represent "a number" with x.
63 - 15x = 72
Solve for x. First subtract 63 from both sides.
-15x = 72-63
-15x = 9
x = -9/15 = <u>-3/5</u>
So the object of this problem is to find out the value of d.
To do this, first think about 5 + 3. This equals 8, right? So the value of d times 4 has to equal 8.
No other number besides 2 would make sense. 2 would equal d because 4 x 2 is 8, and 5 + 3 is 8.
So you would write the answer as:
5+3=4(2)
1 dozen = 12 apples.
3 apples cost 0.48, multiply that by 4 to get the price of 1 dozen.
0.48 x 4 = $1.92 per dozen.
Divide the total you can spend ( 3.84) by cost per dozen:
3.48 / 1.92 = 2
You can buy 2 dozen.
