The least common denominator is 2
This is my answer. How you think about my answer?
If there are 5 people, they get 3 cans.
We want to give the same amount of soup to everyone, so if there are twice as many people, we're going to need twice as much soup.
(10 people, 6 cans)
Now say we had 20 people. (4 times as many)
We'd use 4 times as many cans soup, which would be 3×4 = 12 cans.
So it seems tht both B and D are correct.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
I used a caculator
2.5(10x - 16) = 5
2.5 is multiplying on the left, then it will divide on the right
10x - 16 = 5/2.5
10x - 16 = 2
16 is subtracting on the left, then it will add on the right
10x = 2 + 16
10x = 18
10 is multiplying on the left, then it will divide on the right
x = 18/10
x = 1.8
