Answer:
any number, n, multiplied by 1 is less than n + 1, so A = 1, B = any number
For example, 1 % 7. 1 * 7 = 7. 1 + 7 = 8
Also, having one of the variables be a decimal can make the numbers smaller.
For example, 28 * 0.5 = 14. 28 + 0.5 = 28.5
2.6 because you substract
We should find the original number, 7 of 1/10. We divide the known number for the numerator, than multiply for denominator.
7 : 1 = 7 * 10 = 70 <- answer
So 7 is 1/10 of 70
We can check our work:
1/10 of 70 = 7?
70 : 10 = 7*1 = 7
2(6y - 5) - 3y = 2
12y - 10 - 3y = 2
9y - 10 = 2
9y = 12
y = 4/3, or 1 1/3
2x - 3(4/3) = 2
2x - 12/3 = 2
2x - 4 = 2
2x = 6
x = 3
