Answer:
x= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1st step: Multiply the factor (outside number) with the numbers and variable(s) in the box. This results in 2(x-3) = 2x-6
2nd Step: continue the rest of the equation since there are no more brackets left so 2x-6-12=-4
3rd Step: send -12 to the other side of the equation (side changes sign changes) so it will become 2x-6=-4+12 (You are actually supposed to make the variable alone on one side of the equation so that you would be able to calculate its value)
4th step: 2x-6=8 ---> send -6 to the other side as well which will then result in 2x=14
5th step: since 2 is being multiplied by x, when you send it to the other side (to make x alone) you will divide 14 by 2 ( sign of 2 changes from multiplication to division)
Final Step: x=7
By doing long division. Answer is 7/135
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio is 1:3 multiply that by 9:9 so you effectively get 9:9x3 = 9:27. Or, you can say to yourself if B (3) is 3 times greater than A (1) then B is 3 times greater than 9. So 9x3 = 27
