Let's go ahead and construct an equation to show this. Together, they have 50 goldfish. This can be represented as =50.
Since we don't know how many Todd has, we're going to make a variable. We'll name it T, for Todd.
What about Andres? How many does he have? 10 more than Todd. Well, if Todd's amount is T, and Andres has 10 more, we can express that as T+10.
Now, just put the two pieces together! T+10=50.
The next step is inverse operations. You want to find out how many T is, so you need to get rid of the 10. To take 10 away from something is doing what? Subtraction! Be warned, though; whatever you do to one side of the problem, you have to do to the other. 10-10 is 0, and 50-10 is 40. Since we took the 10 away and 50 is now 40, what you're left with is T=40.
Wait a second.. wasn't "T" Todd's amount? Yep! That means that Todd has 40 goldfish. And we already know that Andres has 10, so there's your answer!

C=pi times d
C=3.14 times 14.2
Answer:
How many closets?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 1/3 = 33.3% or 33 ⅓%
1/9 = 11.1%
2/9 = 22.2%
8/9 = 88.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the numerator by the denominator. Multiply the quotient by 100 to change the decimal to a percentage.
All of these are repeating decimals, so it may be required to keep at least one decimal place in the percentage, depending on how precise the calculation must be.
The product of this equation is 21 when the values of X and Y are imputed into the equation.
