Answer:
-8+12=4 is the correct answer
Thank you
You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

Answer:
Nolan hitted 8 home runs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number of home runs that Nolan hitted by N, and that Davis hitted by D.
So, we can write the following equations:
N = 2 * (D - 6)
N + D = 18
Now we can solve the system of equations, using the value of N from the first equation in the second one:
2 * (D - 6) + D = 18
2*D - 12 + D = 18
3*D = 30
D = 10
Now we find N:
N + D = 18
N + 10 = 18
N = 8
So we have that Nolan hitted 8 home runs.
