Most of the information's that are required for solving the problem is already given in the question. So it is very important to read the question minutely before going for solving and getting to the desired answer.
Total number of eggs that Mary has = 216
Number of eggs that can fit in each carton = 12
Then
Number of cartons required to completely fill = 216/12
= 18
So 18 cartons are required by Mary to fill all the eggs that she has. I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar questions in future without requiring any kind of additional help from anybody.

You have to {DIVIDE} it so the answer will be 18

Which expression is NOT equivalent to 125.78 ÷ 1.23?

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Choice C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For an expression to be equivalent you need to multiply or divide the 2 numbers in the original expression by the same number.

For example A is equivalent because both 125.78 and 1.23 have been multiplied by 100.

The odd one out is C because 125.78 has been divided by 100 but 1.23 has been multiplied by 10.

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Edgar rolls two six-sided number cubes. What is the probability that he rolls a 2 on

frutty [35]

Answer:

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 given the sample space is . 9/36, or 1/4.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that he rolls a sum of 9 = cubes that have a sum of 9 / total number of cubes

9/36 = 1/4

Sinmplify the expression -3(-5y+2)-(8y-3)<br> a) 7y-3<br> b)7y-9<br> c)23y-3

raketka [301]

Answer:

a) 7y - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 3( - 5y + 2) - (8y - 3)$

$15y - 6 - (8y - 3)$

$15y - 6 - 8y + 3$

$7y - 6 + 3$

$\boxed{\green{ = 7y - 3}}$

Solve – 6(x – 3) + x + 3 = -9 for x.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

In this equation, the value of x is equal to 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an algebraic equation in which we need to solve for x.

We can use several properties and algebraic methods to solve this equation.

$\displaystyle -6(x - 3) + x + 3 = -9$

Firstly, we want to use the distributive property to evaluate the first term in the equation: -6(x - 3).

$-6(x - 3) + x + 3 = -9\\\\-6x + 18 + x + 3 = -9$

By distributing the -6 through, we get -6x and positive 18. Then, we need to begin combining like terms. Let's start with our constants (or the terms without a variable).

$-6x + 18 + x + 3 = -9\\\\18 + 3 = 21\\\\-6x + x + 21 = -9$

Then, we can combine our terms with variables.

$-6x + x + 21 = -9\\\\-6x + x = -5x\\\\-5x + 21 = -9$

Now, we can use the subtraction property of equality which states that if we subtract a term from one side of an equation, we must also subtract it from the opposite side. Therefore, we want to get x by itself, so we can subtract 21 from both sides using the subtraction property of equality to do this.

$-5x + 21 = -9\\\\-5x + 21 - 21 = -9 -21\\\\-5x = -30$
