12=8 18=12 24=16 (find 2/3 of each one)
So 8, 12 and 16
Answer:
three times the sum of a number and 4, if n were to represent the unknown number, is:
3(n + 4)
18 more than a number is:
n + 18
If these two are the same, then they are equal to each other, then:
3(n + 4) = n + 18
*Do the distributive property on the left*
3n + 12 = n + 18
*Combine like terms*
2n = 6
*Divide both sides by 2*
n = 3
The number is 3.

Tan socks = 4
Grey socks = 7
Total number of socks = 4+7 = 11 socks
Probability of picking a tan sock then grey sock:
P(T)*P(G) = (4/11)*(7/10) = 14/54
Probability of picking a Grey sock then Tan sock
P(G)*P(T) = (7/11)*(4/10) = 14/55
Probability of two different colored socks
P(T&G)+P(G&T) = (14/55)+(14/55) = 28/55
