Answer:

30 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Number of pencils shared = 40

Sharing ratio = 2 : 6

Nimah's share = (2 / sum of ratio) * number of pencils

Nimah's share = (2 / 8) * 40

Nimah's share = 80 / 8

Nimah's share = 10 pencils

Jack's share = total number - Nimah's share

Jack's share = 40 - 10

Jack's share = 30

What is the step by step equation to solve 5 (y + 2/5) = -13
Temka [501]

5y + 2 = -13

Subtract 2 from both sides:

5y = -15

Divide both sides by 5:

Y = 3
