He made his mistake in Step 2. Tom should have subtracted 4/8 instead of 1/8. The mistake is that he was not consistent when he multiplied Denominators (bottom number) must be the same when handling fractions so Tom must multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number to balance it out. 1/2 x 4/4= 4/8. Subtract. 7/8 - 4/8= 3/8. Tom has 3/8 of a gallon of paint leftover.
Easy here
(4x800)+(4x70)+(4x5)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4 = 32/4
4x/4 leaves you with x by itself, and 32/4 is 8. So x = 8
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 8 = 28,
it's rather straight forward,
you would subtract 8 from the left side,
doing the same on the right.
now you have
4x = 20
x= 20/4
x=5
hope this helps.
