3 times (2x + 5) is 6x + 15.

6x + 15 = 9 + 3x.

Group by like terms. 6 = -3x

Divide to get x by itself. 6/-3 = -2

Thus -2 = x

After completing the fraction division 5 divided by five-thirds, Miko used the multiplication shown to check her work. 3 times f
Dmitry [639]

Step-by-step explanation:

5 divided by five-thirds can be written in the fractional form is as follows :

\dfrac{5}{\dfrac{5}{3}}

It can be also written as :

\dfrac{5}{\dfrac{5}{3}}=5\times \dfrac{3}{5}\\\\=3

He has done calculations as follows :

3 x 5/3=3/1 x 5/3 = 15/3 or 5

Miko was wrong in the first step where he multiplied 3 by (5/3). It should be 5 multiplied by (3/5). He has done multiplication incorrectly.

How many pieces of gum are in 4 packages of gum?"

Using a proportional function, there are 60 pieces of gum in 4 packages.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

Two values x  and  y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.

The constant k is called constant of proportionality.

The constant is given by:

k = 15/1

k = 30/2

k  = 45/3

k  = 15.

Therefore, the number of pieces of gums in x packages is given by:

y = 15x.

In 4 packages:

y = 15 x 4

y = 60 pieces of gum.

Using a proportional function, there are 60 pieces of gum in 4 packages.
