Answer:
1300
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount put in the station's tank = x
4(400 + x) = 8100 - x Remove the brackets
1600 + 4x = 8100 - x Subtract 1600 from both sides
1600 - 1600 + 4x = 8100 - 1600 - x Do the subtraction
4x = 6500 - x Add x to both sides
4x + x = 6500 - x + x
5x = 6500 Divide by 5
5x/5 = 6500/5
x = 1300
1300 gallons were added to the station's tank.
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
In these 9 bags, each must have 7 gumdrops. So, we can add 7 nine times to itself. 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + ... = 63
OR HERE'S A FASTER WAY *WINK WINK*
Instead of doing repeated addition, we can <u>multiply</u> 7 and 9 together.
<u>Why multiply?</u>
We're going to multiply 7 x 9 so that it means seven gumdrops for <em>each</em> of nine bags.
7 x 9 = 63.
