A common factor of both 126 and 399 is 3 so we can divide both numbers by 3.
126 / 3 = 42
399 / 3 = 133
A common factor for both 42 and 133 is 7 so we can divide both numbers by 7.
42 / 7 = 6
133 / 7 = 19
19 is a prime number so we can't reduce it anymore, therefore 126/399 in its simplest form is 6/19
There was 125,933 fans that attended both games.
To solve for X you must get x by itself so let's get started
-4x+13=6x-7
subtract 13 from both sides
-4x=6x-20
subtract 6x from both sides
-10x=-20
divide both sides by -10
x=2
to check if this is correct plug in x into original equation
-4 (2)+13=6 (2)-7
-8+13=12-7
5=5
answer x=2 holds true :)
To write this as a numerical expression, you will think of the different parts of the math story that are occurring and put them together in one math statement. You have 12 books being ordered that are $9 each AND are paying a $15 shipping charge. This can be written as 12 x $9 + $15. There are 2 terms here - these are the 2 parts! Multiply 12 times 9 first to get $108, then you can add the $15 shipping fee. You can only add units that are the same, so you must multiply first. Your answer statement is a sentence that gives your final answer in a complete sentence. For example, the total cost of Lannie's order is $123.
