Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The left over fraction is divided among the three children as follows

Given

Left over as 3/7

Number of children 3

Quantity each gets will be 3/7÷3

3/7÷3=3/7*1/3=3/21

By simplyfying the fractions, 3/21 when both the numerator and denominator are divided by 3 we obtain that 3/21=1/7

Therefore, each child geta 1/7

sattari [20]

Answer:

The fraction is 32/27

Step-by-step explanation:

let the fraction be x/y

x - y = 6

x = 6 + y ••••••(i)

This is according to the first sentence

Furthermore;

x/y-5 = 3/2

2x = 3(y-5) •••••(ii)

Substitute

2(6 + y) = 3y - 15

12 + 2y = 3y - 15

3y -2y = 12 + 15

y = 27

x = 6 + y

x = 6 + 27 = 33

Solve 3(x + 6) + 8(x – 3) = 27. Show each step of your work.
musickatia [10]
Distribute. 

3(x+6)

3x+18

8(x-3)

8x-24

3x+18+8x-24

Combine like terms. 

11x-6= 27

Add 6 to the other side. 

11x= 33

Divide both sides by 11. 

x=3

I hope this helps!
