Theres a saying: Dividing fractions dont ask why, just flip the second and multiply.
so a/b / c/d = a/b * d/c
-8/2 * -3/6
1. cross - cancel common factor 2
4/2 * -3/3
2. Multiply
-4(-3)/ 2*3
3. multiply numbers
--12/2*3
- -12/6
4. Apply fraction rule -a/b=- a/b
=-(-12/6)
5. divide
= -(-2)
6. Apply rule -(-a)=a
=2
Your answer would be 2

Answer:
5 shirts must be sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, set up the equation. Each shirt (x) is sold for $16:
For every amount (y) for x: (y)(x) = (16)(y)
The cost is $4, with the setup fee as $60.
(16)(y) = (4)(y) + 60
16y = 4y + 60
Isolate the variable (y). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, subtract 4y from both sides.
16y (-4y) = 4y (-4y) + 60
16y - 4y = 60
12y = 60
Next, isolate the variable (y). Divide 12 from both sides.
(12y)/12 = (60)/12
y = 60/12
y = 5
5 shirts must be sold.
To check, plug in 5 for y in the equation:
16y = 4y + 60
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
Simplify.
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
80 = 4(5) + 60
80 = 20 + 60
80 = 80 (True).

1)We need to know the amount of yellow tint in the old mixture.
amount of yellow tint=30% of 40 liters
30%=30/100=0.3
Amount of yellow tint=0.3(40 liters)=12 liters.
2)We need to find the amount of yellow tint in the new mixture.
amount of yellow tint in the new mixture=12 liters + 9 liters=21 liters.
3) we calculate the amount of the new mixture:
amount of new mixture=40 liters + 9 liters=49 liters
4) we compute the percent of yellow tint in the new mixture:
percent of yellow tint =(amount of yellow tint / amount of mixture)*100
percent of yellow tint=(21 liters / 49 liters)100≈42.9%
Answer: The percent of yellow tint in the new mixture is 42.9%.
note: if this answer is not correct you can try it with 42.8%
