Explanation :
1) Write out the equation : X-10 + X-10 + X-10 = 63
2) combine like terms : 3x -30 = 63
3) Add 30 to both sides of the equation to cancel out 30 : 3x = 33
4) divide 3 from both sides of the equation : X = 11
Therefore, the value of x is 11

I spent 3/4 of my money and then I spent 1/5 of what was left.
Monica [59]

Answers:

a) 4/5

b) 1/5

================================================

Let's say you start off with $100. If you spend 3/4 of that, then you spend 75 dollars (because 75/100 = 3/4). Think of it like 75 cents = 3 quarters. If you spend 75 dollars out of 100 total, then you have 100-75 = 25 dollars left after the first round of spending.

If you spend 1/5th of what is left, then you spend $5 on the second round leaving 25-5 = 20 dollars left at the end of the day.

Total up what you spend for both rounds: 75+5 = 80, which divides over the original amount 100 to get 80/100 = 8/10 = 4/5

If you had 20 dollars at he end of the day, out of 100 initially, then 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5 is the fraction of what you have left.

note how 4/5 and 1/5 add to 5/5 = 1.00 = 100%. This is because the amount you spend and the amount you have left over must add to 100% of all the money you started with

Why wuld 8/4 be considerd a whole number
kumpel [21]

Answer:

because 8/4=2

Step-by-step explanation:

4/4=1

8/4=2

it's because the numerator is bigger if it were 6/4 it would be a mixed number but the eight goes in to 4 directly 2 time so therefore it's 2.

lukranit [14]
Hello there.
The sequence is being divided by ten
51/10= 5.1
5.1/10 = 0.51
0.51/10 = 0.051,
and so on.
You can also reverse the following sequence and multiply it by ten.
