I need help showing steps to solve 36v-12=12

Ad libitum [116K]

36v - 12 = 12 .....add 12 to both sides
36v - 12 + 12 = 12 + 12...simplify
36v = 24...divide both sides by 36
(36/36)v = 24/36
v = 2/3 <===

liq [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is fabric Jimmy's sister needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × fabric Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × $\frac{25}{8}$ yards of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jimmy's costume requires ⅞ + ½ + 1 $\frac{3}{4}$ yards of fabric = $\frac{7}{8} +\frac{4}{8} + \frac{14}{8} = \frac{25}{8}$ yards.

His sister's costume requires 3 x (⅞ + ½ + 1 ⅔) the amount of fabric that Jimmy needs = 3× ( $\frac{21}{24} + \frac{12}{24} + \frac{40}{24}$ ) yards of what Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ yards of what Jimmy needs.

The relationship between how much fabric Jimmy needs and how much fabric his sister needs is given by

Fabric Jimmy's sister needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × fabric Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × $\frac{25}{8}$ yards of fabric.
