Answer:

11 (if you wanna know how many cups [which i mean by 2/3] it is 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, to start, a cook has 11 7/8 cups of flour, right? Well, if you subtract 11 7/8 by 2/3 you get 11 5/24. As an estimate, you would get just plain 11 because there is three numbers when you estimate, 11, 11 1/2, or 12. 11 5/24 is more closer to 11 (because 1/2 would be 11 12/24, and 12 would be 11 13/24 or more until 12)

Hope it helped...

namely, how many cups is it 2/3 cups of  11⅞ cups?

let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, bearing in mind that two thirds of that much is simply their product.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{11\frac{7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{11\cdot 8+7}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{95}{8}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{95}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{95}{3}\cdot \cfrac{2}{8}\implies \cfrac{95}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{95}{12}\implies 7\frac{11}{12}

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

7+5x

so basically what you have to do is take the 7 and subtract from both sides

so like this: 7-7 is 0 so that cancels then 47-7 is 40

then you take 5x and divide 40 by 5

so x=8

hope this helped!

I need help with my homework this is hard pls help thx!<br> z=m-x solve for x
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

x = m - z

Step-by-step explanation:

z = m - x       add x to both sides

z + x = m - x + x

z + x = m            subtract z from both sides

z - z + x = m - z

x = m - z
