Given:
Serenity picked 75% of the apples of a tree in her backyard.
She picked 30 apples.
To find:
The number of apples on the tree in the beginning.
Solution:
Let x be the number of apples on the tree in the beginning.
Serenity picked 75% of the apples of a tree in her backyard.
Number of apples picked = 75% of x
=
=
She picked 30 apples.
Multiply both sides by 4.
Divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, the number of apples on the tree in the beginning is 40.
Answer:
A. Division property of inequality
Step-by-step explanation:,
If a, b and c are any real numbers,
By the division property of inequality,
a = b ⇒ ,
By the inverse property of multiplication,
where, 1 is multiplication identity.
By the subtraction property of inequality,
a = b ⇒ a - c = b - c
By transitive property of inequality,
a = b and b = c ⇒ a = c,
Thus, it is clear that,
Division property of inequality is used in step 4.
Option A is correct.
