4/5 of 60 = 48. 4/5 = .80 Multiply .80 by 60 =48
6 - x = 2(x - 6)
the first step, following PEMDAS, is to distribute the 2 to the inside of your parentheses:
6 - x = 2x - 12 ... subtract 2x
6 - 3x = -12 ... subtract 6
-3x = -18 ... divide by -3
x = 6 is the answer
Answer:
205 years
Step-by-step explanation:
E=68 years
C=E+17=68+17=85 years
D=E-16=68-16=52 years
Total=E+C+D=68+85+52=205 years
Part A is basically asking you for the GCF (greatest common factor) between 63 and 36. To find this you find all the numbers that can be multiplied to form each number.
36:
1 * 36
2*18
3*12
4*9
6*6
63:
1*63
3*21
9*7
The GCF is 9.
Part B is asking how much the GCF can go into each type of flower.
4 rows of geraniums
7 rows of marigolds
