28 to 42 means 28/42
We now reduce 28/42 to lowest terms.
28 ÷ 7 = 4
42 ÷ 7 = 6
We now have 4/6.
We now reduce 4/6.
4 ÷ 2 = 2
6 ÷ 2 = 3
Final answer: 2/3

Answer:
80 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of oatmeal cookies sold you would divide 72 by 9.
72 / 9 = 8
This means that 8 oatmeal cookies were sold at the bakery sale. The question wants you to find the combined amount of raisin and oatmeal cookies sold, so add 72 and 8 together.
72 + 8 = 80
80 raisin and oatmeal cookies were sold.

Answer:
- x = x+1
- 0 = x+1
- x+1 = x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There will be no solution if the equation is a contradiction. Usually, it is something that can be reduced to 0 = 1.
If we choose to make our equation ...
x = x +1
Subtracting x from both sides of the equation gives ...
0 = 1
There is no value of the variable that will make this be true.
__
2. Something that reduces to x = c will have one solution. One such equation is ...
0 = x+1
x = -1 . . . . subtract 1 from both sides
__
3. Something that reduces to x = x will have an infinite number of solutions.
One such equation is ...
x+1 = x+1
Subtracting 1 from both sides gives ...
x = x . . . . true for all values of x
