The question assumes there are 5 people at the table. So the number of nuggets are: 1,3,0,6,and x. So your equation is:

\frac{1+3+0+6+x}{5}=3 

So let's solve what we can of the numerator first: 
1+3+0+6+x=10+x

So now we have:
\frac{10+x}{5} =3

We can multiply both sides by 5 to clear the denominator:
5( \frac{10+x}{5} )=3(5) \\ 10+x=15

Now we isolate the x by subtracting 10 from both sides.
10+x-10=15-10
x=5

So the missing number of nuggets is 5.

Hope that helps.

The quotient of 9.2 x 10 6 and 2.3 x 10 2 expressed in scientific notation is
Virty [35]
What we know:
quotient 9.2 x 10^6/ 2.3 x 10²
in quotients exponents are subtracted of they have the same base, for example 10^6 and 10² have the same base of 10

What we need to find: quotient 9.2 x 10^6/ 2.3 x 10²
9.2 x 10^6        
--------------  =    4 x 10^4    
 2.3 x 10²

Here in this problem I divided 9.2 by 2.3 and got 4, since the solution was simple and clean meaning no repeated decimals I went ahead and divided the 10^6 by 10^2 and got 10^4.


Another method would be to expand both numbers then divide and do scientific notation again.
Remember to change to normal notation you move the decimal to the right using the number of the exponent.

9.2 x 10^6= 9200000
2.3 x 10²= 230

920000/230=40000

40000= 4 x 10^4 scientific notation

Use the method that is best for you or just know you can use either method to check your work.
