Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5

Because (4*3) + 3 = 15. Similary find the improper fraction for -2 1/2.
(15/4) / (-5/2) = -3/2
Convert -3/2 into a mixed fraction.
Therefore, -3/2 = -1 1/2.
Is it for greatest common factor or least common factor
