Your answer will be -1 2/10, or -1 1/5 if you're looking for a simplified answer. My method is called KCF, or Keep Change Flip. First, you don't have to do anything with the -4/5. Next, you would want to change the division to multiplication. It is possible to just divide across, but changing it to multiplication is way easier and will save time. After that, you would switch -2/3 to -3/2. FLIPPING THE SECOND FRACTION DOES NOT MEAN THE NEGATIVE TURNS INTO A POSITIVE. Your answer would be 12/10, but we aren't done just yet. 10 goes into 12 once, now we have 1 2/10 left over. If you simplify you will get 1 1/5. So there you have it! I answered you question as best as I could and I hope this was helpful.

3 over 5 is 30% of what number?

denis23 [38]

3/5 = 0.3 * x
3/5 is 30% of x - This is how they match up from the word problem to a number sentence

So to solve it...
3/5 = 0.3x
x = 3/5 ÷ 0.3 = 2

X +5+11x=12x+Y It says find the value of y that makes each equation true for all values of

sladkih [1.3K]

X + 5 + 11x = 12x + y

Simplify: 12x + 5 = 12x + y (We are adding x and 11x on the left side)

Subtract 12x from each side makes each zero.

5 = y

So we can plug in and test. I'm picking two random numbers to plug in for x. 10, and 82

x = 10, y = 5
10 + 5 + 11(10) = 12(10) + 5
125 = 125

x = 82, y = 5
82 + 5 + 11(82) = 12(82) + 5
989 = 989

So we verified y = 5
