2/3 = x/(3x + y)

Cross multiply:

3x = 2(3x + y)

Distribute 2:

3x = 6x + 2y

Subtract 6x to both sides:

-3x = 2y

Divide 'y' to both sides:

-3x/y = 2

Divide -3 to both sides:

x/y = -2/3

2/3 = x/3x + y
2(3x + y) = 3x
2(3x) + 2(y) = 3x
    6x + 2y = 3x
<u> - 6x           - 6x</u>
           <u>2y</u> = <u>-3x</u>
            2       2
             y = -1.5x

Answer:

. We assume, that the number 260 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 260 is 100%, so we can write it down as 260=100%.

4. We know, that x is 6.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.75%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 260=100%

2) x=6.75%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

260/x=100%/6.75%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 6.75% of 260

260/x=100/6.75

(260/x)*x=(100/6.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

260=14.814814814815*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.814814814815) to get x

260/14.814814814815=x

17.55=x

x=17.55

now we have:

6.75% of 260=17.55

What fraction of 3 is 2 2/5
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can view that as what do we multiply 3 by to get 2 2/5 and call that value x

3x = 2 2/5

x = (2 2/5)/3

Let's turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction... 2 2/5 = 12/5

So we have

x = (12/5)/3 = (12/5)(1/3) = 4/5

Thus 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Verify:  3(4/5) = 12/5 = 2 2/5
