Answer is 4 .............
8 and 5 multiply to 40 but subtract to 3.
Answer:
900 calories
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to find the unit rate, how many calories are there in ONE cracker? To find that you have to divide 60 ÷ 12 = 5 and to check with the other one, 75 ÷ 15 = 5
So, one cracker is 5 calories. Now, how many calories are in 180 crackers? You multiply, 180 x 5 = 900
That means there are 900 calories in 180 crackers.
Hope that helps and have a great day!
Well, to get rid of them, you would have to add or subtract that fraction to both sides of the equation (making them still equal to each other), so it would just get too complicated to completely get rid of a fraction. That is, if you don't need to.
