I believe if I'm understanding this right you can split this candy bar into 2 thirds. If you have 8 pieces left, you can get 2 groups of three out of 8.

I hope this helps! <3

Let 'x' represent the number of 1/3 pieces.

(1/3)x <= 8/10

then you find the inequality.

x <= 2.4

Since we are looking for integer solution we have:

Jamie can make two 1/3 pieces.

This is my best answer! Hope this helps!! :D

For the first one,

you multiply 5x and -5 to get -25.

Then you move the constant to the right and change the sign to get 3x= -21 +25.

Calculate the sum of -21+25 to get 4.

Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get x=4/3.

So then your final answer is x=4

For the second one,

Distribute 7 through the parentheses to get 14x + 14+8=120

The you add 14+8 to get 22. Your equation should be 14x+22=120

Move the constant to the right side and change its sign to get 14x=120-22

Subtract 120-22 to get 98. Now your equation should be 14x=98

Divide both sides of the equation by 14 to get x=7.

Your finial answer for the second one should be x=7.
