One eight of Tony's books are mystery books. He has 3 mystery books. How many books does tony have in all?

1 answer:

8 0

Tony has 24 books in total because if 1/8 of the books are mystery and there are 8 mystery books you have to multiple the denominator by the amount of mystery books (8*3=24).

If 2/3=x/12 , what is the value of x?

Andru [333]

2/3=x/12
Use cross multiply
2*12=3*x
24=3x
Divided both side by 3
24/3=3x/3
x=8
Check:
2/3=x/12
Substitute x with 8
2/3=8/12
2/3=(8/4)/(12/4)
2/3=2/3. As a result, x=8. Hope it help!
