One whole jar= 3/3 or 1
Set up a ratio comparing the two sets of measurements.
2 2/4 ounces of peanuts is to 2/3 of a jar as x ounces of peanuts is to 3/3 of a jar.
x= ounces in 1 whole jar
2 2/4 / 2/3= x / 3/3
cross multiply
(2 2/4 * 3/3)= (2/3 * x)
convert to improper fractions
10/4 * 3/3= 2/3x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(10*3)/(4*3)= 2/3x
30/12= 2/3x
divide both sides by 2/3
30/12 ÷ 2/3= x
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 2/3
30/12 * 3/2= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(30*3)/(12*2)= x
90/24= x
simplify by 6
15/4 or 3 3/4 ounces= x
ANSWER: 3 3/4 ounces can make a full jar.

Answer:
y= 2-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate y.
1.
20= 2(x-4)
20/2= 2(x-4)/2
10= x-4
+4 . +4
14=x
