We can add 1/6 & 1/3 together to find out the total amount of crackers that were eaten:
1/6 + 1/3 (Find the Common Denominator. In this case it is 6.)
= 1/6 + 2/6
= 3/6 (Now find the Lowest Terms. Both 6 & 3 divide into 3)
= 1/2 (In Lowest Terms)
This means that 1/2 of the Crackers have been eaten.
1/2 of 18 = 9
Therefore, Bob has 9 Crackers left.
Answer:
x = 2/3 or x = -1
Step-by-step explanation by completing the square:
Solve for x:
3 x^2 + x - 2 = 0
Divide both sides by 3:
x^2 + x/3 - 2/3 = 0
Add 2/3 to both sides:
x^2 + x/3 = 2/3
Add 1/36 to both sides:
x^2 + x/3 + 1/36 = 25/36
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 1/6)^2 = 25/36
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 1/6 = 5/6 or x + 1/6 = -5/6
Subtract 1/6 from both sides:
x = 2/3 or x + 1/6 = -5/6
Subtract 1/6 from both sides:
Answer: x = 2/3 or x = -1
Answer: 8.6:8.6
Explanation:
1:n is the form you want.
n is 8.6. change the n value so it is 1:8.6
1 is 1 times bigger than 8.6
8.6 times 1 is 8.6
so you've got 8.6:8.6
your welcome, i hope this helps
