Answer:
decreases
Step-by-step explanation:
Product of 4 and a number translates to 4x because the word product means multiplication.
We then need to subtract one from that which would be 4x - 1.
The word is translates to "equals" so 4x - 1 = 11 is the translation of the whole problem.
Now solve that equation.
4x - 1 = 11
1st add +1 +1
2nd simplify 4x = 12
3rd divide. 4 4
x = 3
Ok so 24 of them and that would be ur answer
Of course.
You can only say for sure that 1/4 of a whole thing is less than 1/3 of a whole thing
if the whole things are equal size.
If Marty's pizza was 1/3 bigger than Luis' pizza, then they both ate the same amount.
If Marty's was MORE than 1/3 bigger than Luis', then Marty ate more pizza.
