The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
We have then:
x: weight of each pallet with cement
We then have the following equation:
16x = 4856
Clearing x we have:
x = (4856) / (16)
x = 303.5 punds
Answer:
each pallet with cement weigh:
x = 303.5 punds
4/10 × 1/6 = 2/30
You can cross cancel 4 and six...then multiply 2/10 × 1/3 which equals 2/30
If you want you can simplify 2/30 to 1/15
Alright, so 2x+2=0 (with x being the number) is what I'm getting from this. Subtract 2 from both sides to get 2x=-2, and then divide by 2 to get x=-1
You didn’t post the options but that is also equal to 1.0 x 10^-6
