Answer:
30 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
To me it's kind of like multiplying and dividing.
So, what I did was 30,000 divided by 30 and got 1,000.
1,000 x 30 = 30,000.
That's what I did. You probably have your own way of doing it, but the answer is 30. I'm sorry if my explanation isn't good enough but I tried. Thanks for the question and enjoy your answer :)

Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 feet in a yard, so 420 feet is 420/3 = 140 yards.
The total number of yards Edith needs is ...
65 yd + 580 yd = 645 yd
So, the total number of balls of yarn Edith needs is ...
(645 yd)/(140 yd/ball) ≈ 4.61 balls
Edith needs to buy 5 balls of yarn to make her projects.
Answer:
x−3=x−3
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate (2x−1)−7, then set it equal to 2.
Subtract 7 from −1 = 2x−8
Solve 2x−8=2.
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.
Add 8 to both sides of the equation=2x=2+8
Add 2 and 8=2x=10
Divide each term by 2 and simplify.
Divide each term in 2x=10 by 2=2x/2=10/2
Cancel the common factor of 2
Cancel the common factor=10/2
Divide x by 1=x=10/2
Divide 10 by 2=x=5
Remove parentheses=x−3
List all of the solutions.

(2x−1)−7=2=x=5
x−3=x−3
