Answer:
5x - 63 = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, first step, let's get all fractions having a common denominator, to do this, multiply 2/3 by 3 to get 6/9. Now, we have 5/9x-7=6/9. To make these into whole numbers, we can multiply the whole equation by the denominator (9). 5/9x multiplied by 9 is 5. 7 multiplied by 9 is 63. 6/9 multiplied by 9 is 6. Now we have 5x-63=6. If I were to simplify the equation, it would require decimals, so I'll leave it at this, but the equation simplified is x=13.8.
Answer:
20 books
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the shelf can hold 25 1/2 lbs (i.e 25.5 lbs), and that each book weighs 1 1/4 ln (i.e 1.25 lbs)
number of books which the shelf can hold
= weight that the shelf can hold ÷ weight of each book
= 25.5 ÷ 1.25
= 20.4 books
because having 0.4 of a book (i.e part of a book) would not be very feasable, we have to round the number of books down to the nearest whole number)
20.4 books rounded down to nearest whole number = 20 books (answer)
Answer:
3/8
Step-by-step explanation
Convert 3/4 to 6/8 to make it easier subract since this problem asks how much he has left.
So 6/8-3/8=3/8
X = -2
3 x -2 = -6
-6 -2= -8
|-8| = 8
-2 + 1= -1
|-1|=1
