32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
Answer: 3 13/24
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Turn 7 1/6 into an Improper Fraction:</u>
43/6 - 3 5/8
<u>Turn 3 5/8 into an Improper Fraction:</u>
43/6 - 29/8
<u>Subtract:</u>
43/6 - 29/8= 85/24
<u>Turn 85/24 into a Mixed Number (Final Step):</u>
85/24 = 3 13/24
<u>Answer:</u>
3 13/24
Hope this Helps!
