Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)

3 hours and 55 minutes - 15 minutes would leave 3 hours and 40 minutes. You figure there’s 20 minutes 3 times in an hour so 3x3 is 9 + the extra 2 20 minute periods from the 40 minutes. So 11 batches of cookies, 48x11= 528. Amy made 528 cookies.

Answer:

. We assume, that the number 260 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 260 is 100%, so we can write it down as 260=100%.

4. We know, that x is 6.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.75%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 260=100%

2) x=6.75%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

260/x=100%/6.75%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 6.75% of 260

260/x=100/6.75

(260/x)*x=(100/6.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

260=14.814814814815*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.814814814815) to get x

260/14.814814814815=x

17.55=x

x=17.55

now we have:

6.75% of 260=17.55
