It would help if you find common denominator... 12
so 1/3 times 4 both the numerator and denominator
4/12
and 3/4 times by 3 both the numerator and denominator
9/12
the recipe calls for 4/12 cup of oil and you have 9/12
two batches would be 8/12 cups of oil, you have 9/12 that is just enough for the recipe for two batches...
now to simplify it again, 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3 and 2/3 is less than 3/4
the answer would be the upper right
Answer:
$8.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up the equation first.
What do we know:
1. We have 6 friends spliting the costs of the gifts
2. After purchasing the gifts they have $42 in change
3. They originally had $90 to spend.
Equation:
6f + $42 = $90
Next: Subtract the $42 from each side and we are left with:
6f = $48
Divide both sides by 6 and we are left with
f = $8
Since f represented the cost each friend spent our answer is $8.00
Answer:
First you have to multiply negative four in parentheses, then add minus two
-4×(-8+3x)=32-12x
2+32-12x=34-12x
34-12x=82
-12x=48
x=-4
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
This symbol is an <u>absolute value</u> symbol. It means that we are looking for that number's distance from 0. There is no such thing as a negative distance; the distances are all positive, so both ∣9∣ and ∣-9∣ have a value of 9.
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
6-10+2 solve from left to right and your answer should be -2
