\dfrac{1}{12}{(3x-7)

and the distributive property applies.

=\dfrac{1}{12}(3x)-\dfrac{1}{12}(7)\\\\=\dfrac{3\cdot x}{3\cdot 4}-\dfrac{7}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{7}{12}

your recipe calls for 1/2 a pound of potatoes. You use 1/6 of the bag of potatoes. whats the number of pounds per bag
zhannawk [14.2K]
I you use 1/6 of the bag for 1/2 a pound then you need to set up a proportion.

1/6 bag / 1 bag = 1/2 pound / x pounds      Cross Multiply
(1/6)*x = 1/2 pounds * 1 bag Divide by 1/6

Remember: in a 4 level fraction, the denominator inverts and multiplies.


x = {x = }\frac{ \frac{1}{2} }{ \frac{1}{6} } \\ \\ {x =} \frac{1}{2} *  \frac{6}{1} \\ \\{x = }  \frac{6}{2} = 3
