She needs 27 crates to make 7 steps. It makes more sense if you draw it out for yourself.
A simple answer is because 4 and 5/4 is equal to 5 and 1/4. Because 5/4 is 1/4 more than 4/4, or 1.
Answer:
a=6
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the value of a you need to simplify the equation first. so...
3(a+3)-6=21 (you remove the bracket first)
3a+9-6=21
3a+3=21 (you collect the like terms then)
3a=21-3
3a=18 (then you both divide both sides by 3 to find the value of a)
a=18/3
a=6
to check your answer substitute 3 instead of a
3(a+3)-6=21
3(6+3)-6=21
3(9)-6=21 (according to BODMAS since multiplication comes first you multiply 3 with 9 before subtracting it from 6.)
29-6=21
21=21
No it is not because 12 kg is equal to 12,000,000mg, which is greater than 70 mg.
