7/8 + 4/8= 11/8 so 11/8 ÷2 = 5.5/8 she puts 5 1/2 /8 cups of the mixture in each bowl
Multiply each term by 8 ( to get rid of the fractions)
we get:-
-72 = -16 - k
k = -16 + 72 = 56 answer
Answer:8:24

Answer:
7x+6 = 5(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
x represents Harry's age now, so 7x represents Nick's age now. (Nick is 7 times as old as Harry.)
In 6 years, Harry's age will be x+6.
In 6 years, Nick's age will be 7x+6, which is 5 times Harry's age at that time, 5(x+6). Hence an appropriate equation is ...
... 7x+6 = 5(x+6)
_____
Please note that finding the value of x does not give the answer to the question. We are asked for Harry's age in 6 years, so the answer is x+6 (=18).
