first, make an equation:

then, add twelve to both sides to remove it from the right:

then just divide by (-3) to get the value of x:

Answer:
0.75 cups of ice cream
x bowls
t is the total number of cups of ice cream
.75x = t
example"
If you have 5 bowls.
.75 (cups of ice cream) * 5 (bowls) = 3.75 cups of ice cream needed
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Mean is the number you get when you add all these numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. So, (31 + 28 + 30 + 31 + 30) / 5 = 150 / 5 = 30
2. The median is the middle number in the list of numbers, so, the answer is 30 as well.
3. Mode is the number that appears most often, so here it is 30 and 31 because they both appear 2 times.
4. Range is the difference between the largest and smallest number, so 31 - 28 = 3.
