Answer:

m = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12m - 15 = 3 (2m + 3)

12 m - 15 = 6m + 9

12m - 6m - 15 = 6m - 6m + 9

6m - 15 = 9

6m - 15 + 15 = 9 + 15

6m = 24

(1/6) 6m = 24 (1/6)

m = 4

Answer:

<h2>6 is the Answer.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction consists of two parts the top number and the bottom one.

Think of the top number as the count and the bottom as the size indicator. So you have:

countsize indicator −−−−−−−−−−→proper names numeratordenominator

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Consider the action example of dividing 3 into 6.

We can do this division directly because their size indicators are the same. That is, we have: 61÷31. People do not normally write it this way but it is correct.

To directly divide the counts the size indicator must be the same

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So we need to see how many of 18 will fit into 34

We can not do this directly in one operation as the size indicators are not the same.

Lets make the size indicators (denominators) the same

Multiply by 1 and you do not change the value but

1 comes in many forms.

[34×1]÷18 → [34×22]÷18

[3×24×2]÷18 → 68÷18

Now that the size indicators (denominators) are the same we can just divide the counts (numerators)

countsize indicator→[68÷18]=6÷1=6

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I could explain more showing the connection between this and the shortcut method but what I have shown you will do for now.

19 dozen cookies to individual cookies

Art [367]

Answer:

228 individual cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 19 dozen cookies to individual cookies, we first have to identify that:

$dozen=12$

If a dozen is equal to 12, to solve, we simply must multiply the amount of dozens, which is 19, by a dozen, which is 12:

$19*12=$

$228$

Therefore, there are 228 individual cookies.

We can check our work by dividing the individual number of cookies, 228, by dividing buy the amount of dozens, 19, and a dozen, 12:

$228$ ÷ $19=12$

$228$ ÷ $12=19$

As you can see, our quotients are the two figures we started with, and when multiplied together, give us 228 individual cookies; therefore, our solution is correct!
