If 24 students went on a field trip, and 24 students represented eight tenths of the class, then

.
First, multiply by 10 on both sides.
240 = 8x
Divide by 8 on both sides.
x = 30.
The class has 30 students in all.
This is, however, only the equation way to solve.
Umm i think the answer is C
-1/5 (x - 4) = -2
(-1/5)x + (4/5) = -2
-2 can be turned into -10/5
(-1/5)x = (-10/5) - (4/5)
(-1/5)x = -14/5
multiply by -5 on both sides
x = 14
hope this helps :)
How many 1/3 cups blueberry can you get out of the 4/5 cup..
= (4/5) / (1/3)
= (4/5)*(3/1)
= 12/5
= 2 2/5 batches
