Answer for the equation by elimination
The answer is -4.5
To solve these types of problems it's best to work backwards.
-2 - 16 = -18
4 x (n) = -18
n = -18/4
n = -4.5
Answer:
3.6 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1 bottle weighs 3/5 pounds
the 6 bottles will weigh 6 x 3/5
= 18/5
ratio method :
1:3/5
6:x
since the ratios are direct we can cross multiply
18/5 = 1x
so the 6 bottles weigh 18/5 pounds or 3.6 pounds
Estimation :
20/0.05 = 400
Two equal fractions would be 4/6 and 6/9.
