Do cross multiplication
<u>6</u> = <u>x</u>
18 12
Now cross multiply
(6)(12) = (18)(x)
72 = 18x
Divide both sides by 18
<u>72</u> = <u>18x</u>
18 18
4 = x
So tMei can complete 4 problems in 12 minutes.
<span>The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.</span>
