If a pitcher of fruit punch holds 2 gallons, and
9 people shared the pitcher equally, each person would get about <span>0.222222222 gallons each. That is about 3.5 cups of fruit
punch per person. To get the answer, you could convert the gallons to
cups. Two gallons is 32 cups. Divide 32 cups by 9 and the answer is 3.555.</span>

Answer:
34a + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
12a + 6a + 8 + 10a - 4 + 6a + 8
combine like terms
12a + 6a + 10a + 6a
and 8 + 8 - 4
34a + 12
Let x and y be the larger and smaller numbers respectively.
Use the given fact "five times the larger plus three times the smaller is 47" to set up an equation:
5x + 3y = 47 ...................(1)
Use the given fact "four times the larger minus twice the smaller is 20" to set up another equation:
4x - 2y = 20 ...................(2)
Multiply both sides of (1) by 2, we have:
10x + 6y = 94 ............................(3)
Multiply both sides of (2) by 3, we have:
12x - 6y = 60 ............................(4)
Add (3) and (4), we have
22x = 154
x = 7
Substituting x = 7 into (1), we have
5*7 + 3y = 47
Solving for y, we have:
35 + 3y = 47
3y = 12
y = 4
