Kulay, there is no such thing as a "step by step answer" here. You seem to want a "step by step solution."
I must assume that by 4/5 you actually meant (4/5) and that by 2/3 you meant (2/3). Then your equation becomes:
(4/5)w - 12 = (2/3)w.
The LCD here is 5*3, or 15, so mult. every term by 15:
12w - 180 = 10w.
Add 180 to both sides, obtaining 12 w - 180 + 180 = 10w + 180.
Then 12w = 10w + 180. Simplifying, 2w = 180. What is w?
Yep!
Weighing #1: Start off by splitting the pile of 12 coins evenly into two piles, 6 in each pile. Put one pile on each side of the balance. The side that is weighed down has the fake coin it in. Ignore the other 6 coins.
Weighing #2: Now you have 6 coins left. Split the pile evenly again, 3 in each pile. Repeat the same process and put each pile on one side of the balance. The side that is weighed down has your fake coin in it. Ignore the other 3 coins.
Weighing #3: You have 3 coins left. Take two coins, whichever two you like, and weigh them. If they weigh the same, then the one you didn't weigh is the fake one. If one is heavier, then that heavier one is your fake coin.

Step-by-step explanation:
Robert Boyle was one of the most prolific figures in the scientific revolution and the leading scientist of his day. He discovered the Boyle's law, which shows that the volume and pressure of a gas are proportionally related.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
48 + 14 / 2 = 31
11 days, 21 hours, and 52 minutes have elapsed
(this answer is assuming he would have a normal heart rate of 70 bpm)
First, you would divide 1,200,703 by 70:
1,200,703/70=17,152.9
This is the amount of minutes that have elapsed.
Then, you convert the minutes to hours by dividing by 60:
17,152.9/60=285.8816667 (285 hours and 52 minutes)
This gives you how many hours and minutes have elapsed.
Finally, you calculate the number of days that have elapsed by dividing 285 by 24 (there are 24 hours in a day):
285/24=11.875 (11 days and 21 hours).
Put all of the amounts together to get the final answer:
11 days, 21 hours, and 52 minutes have elapsed
