Yes, if you just distribute 2(x-6). Then you would have 2x-12 = -35 then add 12 to the -35 and your answer would be 2x = -23 and leads to them being equivalent.
Answer: 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The HCF is the Highest Common Factor of a number in this case 54. This is the highest number times another number which = 54. The HCF for 54 is 18.
Given that total number of books in the book store = 75972
Given that total number of books in science section =
rd of total books =
= 25324
Then remaining number of books = 75972 - 25324 = 50648
Given that 75% of the remaining books are in business section = 75% of 50648 = 0.75*50648 = 37986
Then number of books in the math section = 50648 - 37986 = 12662
Hence final answer is 12662 books in the math section.
