is your answer.
because it cant go into anything else besides 1
What I would usauly do, is switch the whole equation all over.
The inverse of division is multiply. 4 by 2 would equal 8.
So therefore, 8 divided by 2, would then equal 4.
Your answer: 8
Answer:
x=1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) write a linear system - let a = boxes of apples and b = boxes of bananas
a + b = 86
32a + 16b = 1968
2) solve - use substitution
a = 86 - b
32(86 - b) + 16b = 1968
2752 - 32b + 16b = 1968
-16b = -784
16b = 784
b = 49
a + 49 = 86
a = 37
37 boxes of apples and 49 boxes of bananas
