sorry if I'm wrong. I got confused because you put 56+3 twice.×= 63
56+3=59=x-4 (this is with subtraction sign)
I didnt know if that a subtracting or negative so here both
56+3=x-4 (this is with the negative sign)
x= -14.75
1.6+x-3.2=-2+5.6
simplify
-1.6+x=3.6
+1.6 both sides
x=5.2
To be tripled means to be multiplied by 3. So multiply 2 3/4 by 3
2 3/4*3=8 1/4
Therefore the amount of milk needed is 8 1/4 cup
You mean 60%of 5 1/2? that makes more sense...
i would do it like this:

(60% is the same as

(so that there is no confusion, i've put it into an improper fraction
now we can multiply:





which is 3.3.
so 60% of 5 and a half is 3.3.
Answer: One solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(2x-3)+5x=4x+8x
4x-6+5x=12x
9x-6=12x
-6=3x
x=-2
