Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, A pizza is to be cut into halves.
Since half is represented by
.
So each piece is now
of the original.
if each of these halves is to be cut into sevenths, then the fraction of final pieces would be:
or we can say each half is divides into 7 pieces since there are two halves, so there will be 2 x 7 = 14 peices.
And the fraction of the pizza is each of the final pieces =
.
Assuming there 6-2 isn't in brackets, otherwise, it would be a tad more complex:
6 -2(x-4) = 22
6 -2x + 8 = 22
14 - 2x = 22
-2x = 8
-x = 4
x = -4
Any second part or anything else to look at?
