- 1 7/8
---------------
We need to borrow from the 3
Take 1 from the 3 and make it 8/8
2 (1/8+8/8)
- 1 (7/8)
---------------------
2 (9/8)
- 1 (7/8)
---------------------
1 2/8
Simplify the fraction by dividing by 2 on the top and bottom

Answer:
<h3>2x+2y = 100</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of points in the test = 100points
If the test has x questions worth 2 points apiece, then the total number of points for x questions with 2 points each will be 2 * x i.e 2x........ 1
Also, if y questions worth 4 points apiece then the total number of points for y questions with 4 points each will be 4 * x i.e 4x ....... 2
Total points = eqn 1 + eqn 2
100 = 2x+ 2y
Rearrange
2x+2y = 100
Hence an equation in Standard Form that would model this situation is 2x+2y = 100
2x + 3y + 2(x - y) - 3x
First you apply the distributive property:
2x +3y + 2(x) - 2(y) - 3x
2x + 3y +2x - 2y - 3x
The you combine like terms:
2x + 2x - 3x +3y - 2y
4x - 3x + y
x (x could also be 1x) + y (y could also be 1y)
The answer is x + y or 1x + 1y
