Answer:

8/3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Each person gets 1/3 pound, and there are 8 people, so we can multiply 8 by 1/3 to find the answer

8*1/3=8/3

So, she will need to buy 8/3 pounds of chicken, or 2 2/3 pounds

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

2\frac{2}{3} pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Each person will eat 1/3 pound of chicken, and there are 8 people. So, we want eight 1/3 pounds. We can write this as an addition problem:

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3

This addition problem is equivalent to the multiplication problem: 8 * (1/3)

Both will yield the same result: 8/3 pounds = 2\frac{2}{3} pounds, and that's the answer.

Hope that helps!

How do i do 3=4(x-2)+5-3x
SashulF [63]

Answer:

6 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we simplify the parenthesis by distributing the 4

3 = 4(x - 2) + 5 - 3x

3 = 4x - 8 + 5 - 3x

then, you add like terms

3 = x - 3

then add 3 to both sides to isolate x

6 = x
