Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x-15)/2 = 4x
Multiply each side by 2
(3x-15)/2 *2= 4x*2
3x-15 = 8x
Subtract 3x from each side
3x-15-3x = 8x-3x
-15 = 5x
Divide each side by 5
-15/5 = 5x/5
-3 =x
Taking a quotient, we will see that she can make 7 bowls of cereal (and some leftover milk).
<h3>How many bowls of cereal would kathy have?</h3>
We know that for each bowl, she needs 1/2 cups of milk.
And we also know that she has a total of (3 + 3/5) cups of milk.
To know how many bowls she can make, we need to take the quotient between the total that she has and the amount that she needs for each bowl:
(3 + 3/5)/(1/2)
We can rewrite the total as:
3 + 3/5 = 15/5 + 3/5 = 18/5
Then the quotient becomes:
(18/5)/(1/2) = (18/5)*2 = 36/5 = 35/5 + 1/5 = 7 + 1/5
So she can make 7 bowls of cereal (and some leftover milk).
