Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4(x - 5) = 8x + 4 - 6x ← distribute left side and simplify right side
4x - 20 = 2x + 4 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
2x - 20 = 4 ( add 20 to both sides )
2x = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 12

There are 240,000 acres of the state parkland in Mississippi.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a= Mississippi's parkland acres
You can use either Distributive Property, or The Order of Operations.

228,000+12,000= a
240,000= a

(76,000+4,000) 3= a
(80,000) 3= a
240,000= a

Answer:
To represent parts of whole numbers, we use fractions.
So if 4 kids are sharing 3 cookies, what happens?
First, we divide one cookie into four equal parts, and give one part to each kid. Then we do the same with the second cookie, and then with the third one.
In the end, each kid will have three pieces. Each piece is a whole cookie divided into four equal parts.
So we represent this amount as
3 (Number of parts) & 4 (How many equal parts the whole is divided into)
3
4
as a fraction
A fraction is made of two numbers :
