Answer:

C. 4 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

6 1/3 and 2 1/3 are mixed numbers because they are a combination of a whole number and a fraction. They could be represented like:

6 1/3 = 6 + 1/3

2 1/3 = 2 + 1/3

To substact them, we need to convert the integer into a fraction. Since 6 = 6/1, we can multiply the numerator a denominator by 3 to get an equivalent fraction. We will do the same with 2 1/3.

6 + 1/3 = 6/1 + 1/3 = 6/1 × (3/3) + 1/3 = 18/3 + 1/3 = 19/3

2 + 1/3 = 2/1 + 1/3 = 2/1 × (3/3) + 1/3 = 6/3 + 1/3 = 7/3

The remaining material will be:

19/3 - 7/3 = 12/3 = 4

There will be 4 yd left.

18-4=14

Explanation:

Before he was 6.

So 6+12 would give us 18 which will be his age after 12 years.

and 3 times 6 equals 18

we want to know what the current age was so

we subtract 18 - 4 which is equal to 14

How do i solve this chart
marta [7]
Alright so filling in the chart isnt too hard. First subtract 18 from 25 which gets you 7 for no traffic citations, because 18+7=25, so it makes sense to fill in the gap for no traffic citations. 1st column done.
