2 cakes - Theresa's and Joe's
Theresa's cake had 6 pieces after she cut it. (2 times the size of Joe's pieces)
Joe's cake had 12 pieces after he cut it. (1/2 the size of Theresa's pieces)
We know that 8/12ths of ONE cake were eaten and that Joe ate 2 of his pieces.
We want to know how many pieces Theresa ate of her cake. Keeping in mind that her pieces are equal to 2 of Joe's pieces we can solve this question.
8/12 eaten total
if 2/12 by Joe
then 8-2 = 6, 6/12 by Theresa
(BUT: Theresa's pieces were twice the size of Joe's so we will divide by 2)
6/12 = 3/6
Answer: Theresa ate 3 pieces of her cake

Answer:
a:b = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we need to operate with terms in order to arrive to a ratio a:b (or a/b).
We have:
2a−b/6 = b/3
Lets sum b/6 in both sides:
2a−b/6 + b/6 = b/3 + b/6
2a = b/3 + b/6
Now, we can multiply and divide b/3 by 2 to make a 6 appear on the denominator and sum it with b/6, this is, use common denominator:
2a = b/3*(2/2) + b/6
2a = 2b/6 + b/6
2a = 3b/6
2a = b/2, as 3/6 = 1/2
Now lets divide both sides by b to make an a/b appear:
2a/b = (b/2)/b
2a/b = 1/2
Finally, multiply both sides by (1/2) or divide by 2:
(2a/b)/2 = 2
a/b = 2
This is, a is twice as b. If b is 1 so a is 2; if b is 45 so a is 90, and so on.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Adam plans to choose a video game from a section of the store where everything is 75% off.
The expression written by him for this situation is d - 0.75d.
Here, the part d represents the sale price before discount and the part 0.75d is the discount amount.
The expression written by Rena is 0.25d.
Here, the part 0.25d is the price after discount. Since 75% is the discount, the rate after disount is 25% and 25% of d is 0.25d.
