This strategy works because if you subtract one number from another the sum of the two numbers should be the that is being subtracted from. (In this case, it's 200)
ANSWER: x=12
EXPLANATION:
9+x/6=11
(54+x)/6=11 (finding common denominator)
x/6=11-54/6 (rearranging terms)
x/6=(66-54)/6 (finding common denominator so 6 gets cancelled from both the sides)
x=12
Answer:
50 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
x+4x+10=y
y is 60
x+4x+10=60
5x+10=60
5x=50
x=10
or
10*4=40
40+10=50
50+10=60
Answer:
the answer is 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the same term to both sides of the equation
-x=7x-56
−x=7x−56
−x−7x=7x−56−7x
For every 3 packages, she uses 1/2 a roll of wrapping paper
if she uses 2 1/2 rolls.....
(2 1/2) / (1/2) ....* 3
(5/2) / (1/2).....* 3
(5/2 * 2) * 3
5 * 3 =
15 packages <===
