You divide 2 1/2 ÷ 2
5/2 x 1/2 = 5/4 = 1 1/4 chocolate bars for each.

Answer:

x= 12/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Also, if you mean simplify, it can no longer be simplified, so it would just be

1/4x-3/5.

Hope this helps!!

Plz let me no if I'm wrong.

Justify each step of the solution by stating the property that was used to get to each step.

For this case we have the following expression:

$4.5 (8-x) + 36 = 102-2.5 (3x + 24)$

Applying distributive property to the terms within parentheses we have:

$36-4.5x + 36 = 102-7.5x-60$

We add similar terms on both sides of equality considering that:

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

$72-4.5x = 42-7.5x$

We add 7.5x to both sides of equality:

$72 + 3x = 42$

We subtract 72 from both sides of equality:

$3x = -30$

We divide between 3 on both sides of equality

$x = -10$

ANswer:

Distributive property

Add similar terms

Equality property of the sum

Equality subtraction property

Equality property of the division
