We want to get rid of the stuff in the denomenator
gcd of the denomenator is 2x
but wait, we can get rid of the deonmenator in the numerator by multiplying by 4x
muliplty the whole thing by 4x/4x
we get
4 x (3+6) = 12 + 24 ---->Distributive
3 + ( 8 + 2) = 3 + (2 + 8) ---> Commutative
6 x (7 x 3 ) = (6 x 7 ) x 3 --->Associative
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The first option.
Because we're solving for the price of each gallon, x will represent the cost of each gallon. Since 8.4 is the total amount of gallons, multiply 8.4 and x to get $23.94. Solve for x by dividing 23.94 to get $2.85 per gallon. To check this, substitute 2.85 for x into the equation: 8.4 (2.85) = 23.94
