2 5/8oz if you use a thrid of it how much is she gone have left over

1 answer:

4 0

Lets convert the fraction first to ease the calculations:
2 5/8 = 16/8 + 5/8 = 21/8
so now we can operate easily, to calculate we need to multiply 21/8 by 2/3 that is because, if 1/3 is used then 2/3 are left over (1/3 + 2/3 = 1, the total), so we have:
(2/3)(21/8) = (2*21)/(3*8)
= 42/24
= 21/12
= 7/4
so 7/4 are left over

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3/(x-3) = 8/(2x+6)

or, 3(2x+6) = 8(x-3) ( by cross multiplication)

or, 6x + 18 = 8x - 24

or, 8x - 6x = 24 + 18

or, 2x = 42

or, x = 42/2
