Lets say you have 5x5. you would just add 5+5+5+5+5. To get a whole number for a fraction you have to do this. lets say you have 8/8 that would be equal to 8 circles and eight of those circles would be shaded in. 8/8 is one whole also 7/1 is a whole. It all depends on the problem you are trying to figure out

Multiplication is the same as repeated addition so let us take an example for a better understanding

2/3 * 4

Looks more like this  

2/3 + 2/3 +2/3 = 2/3 = 8 /3  

(If you add them up, we will get the same answer if we multiply it)

Same as 2/3 *4/1 = 8/3  

On the other hand if you have whole numbers that you need to solve like 3*4 this means that 3 is added 4 times  

3 + 3+ 3+ 3 = 12

Which would be the same thing as  

3*4 = 12

3/8x+1/3y=17/24<br> X+7y=8

Multiplying the first equation and multiplying it by -8/3 (to get rid of the x), we get -8y/9+7y= -64+8=-56. Therefore, -56/(-8/9+7)=y and 8- 7(-56/(-8/9+7))=x by plugging it into the second equation

Can someone please help me solve this
maria [59]
Here's a little known but very useful factoid:

If they're inversely proportional,
then their product is constant.


Here's how to use it:

-- We're told that Y = 8 when X = 7.
So when y=8 and x=7, their product is 56 .

-- If Y REALLY varies inversely as X, then
their product is ALWAYS going to be 56.

-- So when Y=4, X= (56/4) = 14 .

24+3x=3x+3(7-1) What does x equal? Please show me how to do it I don't want the answer. (Well I do but show me how to get it als
balandron [24]

<span>                                               <u>24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)</u>

Eliminate the parentheses:    24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)

                                              24 + 3x = 3x + 18

Subtract  3x  from each side:       <em>24  =  18</em>

Look at that for a second.  Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.

That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."</span>
