Question

Translate the words into a mathematical expression. 1.Two-thirds of the sum of 122 and 98

Answer 1

Hi there!

FACTS :

Two-thirds is written like this in a fraction : 2/3

The word "of" is the same thing as a multiplication sign (×).

The sum is the result of an addition between 2 numbers or more.

STEPS TO ANSWER:

Here's another way to formulate this : The result of adding 122 and 98 together is multiplied by two-thirds.

Now that you know all these information, you can put everything together and form your expression (do not forget the parentheses, otherwise the answer will not be accurate) :

2/3 × (122 + 98) → ANSWER

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
