Steve has x+500 marbles
richard has x marbles
if steve gives richard 300 marbles then
x+500-300 x+300
so x+200 and x+300
richard has more and by 100
48m^5n: 3*2^4*m^5n
81m^2n^2: 3^4m^2n^2
GCF: 3*m^2n
First Step: Leave "x" alone, pass the 3 to the other side
X= 10+3
Second Step: Add 10 plus 3
X= 13
So your answer is: x=13
The answer to the question is d
You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!
