Simplify 3/2n to 3n/2
3n/2 - 8/3 = 29/12
Add 8/3 to both sides
3n/2 = 29/12 + 8/3
Simplify 29/12 + 8/3 to 61/12
3n/2 = 61/12
Multiply both sides by 2
3n = 61/12 × 2
Simplify 61/12 × 2 to 122/12
3n = 61/6
Divide both sides by 3
n = 61/6/3
Simplify 61/6/3 to 61/6 × 3
n = 61/6 × 3
Simplify 6 × 3 to 18
<u>n = 61/18</u>
1.75 kg + 1.54 kg = 3.29 kg or 7.253208 pounds.
The answer is 6 pints equal to more than 60 fluid ounces
1 pint = 16 ounces.
6 pints = x
Use the proportion:
1 pint : 16 ounces = 6 pints : x
x = 16 ounces * 6 pints : 1 pint
x = 96 ounces
6 pints = 96 ounces > 60 ounces
Therefore, 6 pints equal to more than 60 fluid ounces
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
To isolate x, you divide both sides by 21
21x=7
x = 7/21
Simplify by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 7
x = 1/3
Since, 1/3 is not an option, B is the correct answer
128 pencils divided by 6 pencils that can be put in a box; 128÷6=21 with a remainder of 3
Martin needs 3 more pencils for the last box, beacuse he has 3 leftovers and 6 can go into the box. 6-3=3
