Let X be the first and second number.
X+X = 18
+ X-X = 2
2X = 20 (divide both sides by 2
X = 10
Substitute the values to get the second number
10+X = 18
X = 18 -10
X = 8
Therefore, the numbers are 10 and 8
Hello! I would love to help!
Okay, let's first figure out what the problem is asking us. Basically, we need to subtract 4/6 from 5/6 to find the extra left over.
Let's do it!
We need to do 5/6-4/6
To do this, subtract the numerators, or top numbers of each fraction.
The top numbers are 5 and 4
5-4=1
Now, put the new numerator over 6, the common denominator.
1/6
So, your answer is 1/6 cup extra oil.
Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!

7 1/2 = 15/2
15/2 divided 15
15/2 times 15/1
Since we are doing division, we do the resripicols for the second fraction ONLY. so the promblem is 15/2 timess 1/15 = 1/2
Answer:
<em>b = 15</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
4(b + 5) = 3b + 35
Distribute:
4(b + 5)
4(b) = 4b
4(5) = 20
4b + 20 = 3b + 35
Combine like terms:
4b - 3b = 35 - 20
b = 15
