What we need to know is how much is 1/3 of 25 2/5.

We will be multiplying fraction by a fraction and for this, it's good to change mixed numbers into improper fractions:

25 2/5=\frac{23*5+2}{5}= \frac{117}{5}

and now we multiply it by 1/3:

\frac{1}{3}\frac{117}{5}=\frac{39}{5}=7\frac{4}{5}

and that's the answer: the basketball equipment weights 7 4/5 pounds.

(7x-y=7<br>(x+2y=6 estimate the solution to the system of equations ​
jolli1 [7]

Multiply the first equation by 2 to then use elimination by adding the 2 equations.

So, 14x-2y=14

+. x+2y=6

Equals 15x=20 so x=20/15=4/3

Plug in to first equation to get y

7(4/3)-y=7

28/3-y=7

28/3-y=21/3

So y=7/3

Plug both x and y into second equation to check

4/3+2(7/3)=

4/3+14/3=18/3=6 it works

So x=4/3, y=7/3

Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
