Again,im not quite sure that i understand what youre asking,will you please specify so that i may answer
You can think of it as two separate fractions. 1/2 divided by 3/1. You can solve this by multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. A reciprocal is switching the fraction by turning it over. So you just have to solve 1/2 multiplied by 1/3. As a result you get 1/6 as the answer! Hope this helped!
I would recommend starting by turning 172 into 100+70+2. This makes it much easier to multiply it by 6.
(100+70+2) × 6 =
distributive property
(100×6) + (70×6) + (2×6) =
Simplify
600 + 420 + 12 =
Add it all together
1032
The answer would be 1032.
Answer:
C) 8x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ultimately you want the two problems to be equal. It is not 6x because if you distribute 3 in this case, you will get 18x so it is 8x, it is also not -12 because it will be -36 as a result, so your answer is 8x-4.
