Step-by-step explanation:
9x2= 3 • 3 • x2
6x= 3 • 2 • x
12x= 2 • 2 • 3 • x
8= 2 • 2 • 2
Steven kept 27 paper clips for himself with means 136 paper clips are left. (163-27) now divide 136 by 8 you get 17. Each friend receives 17 paper clips.
Another way to put 6/7 - 1/8 is 48/56- 7/56 since the LCM of 7 and 8 is 56 (if you don’t know what that is I can explain it) sorta like subtraction you subtract both numerators (48 and 7 or 48-7) which gives you 41 then you put the denominator (56) below that. So in other words it equals 41/56
The first thing you would do is simplify the inside of the parenthesis to 55/6 using PEMDAS. Next all you do is multiply that by 5 to get 275/6 or 45.833 (repeating) in decimal form.
