Here is the method for solving that equation:
Step #1: Write the equation:
-15x = 0
Step #2: Divide each side of the equation by -15 :
<u>x = 0</u>
Set up a proportion:
3/4/24 = 1/x
Cross multiply:
3/4x = 24
Divide 3/4 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 4/3:
x = 24 * 4/3
x = 96/3
x = 32
So you had a total of 32 muffins, now subtract this from the amount that blew away to find out how many you have left:
32 - 24 = 8
So you have 8 muffins left.

Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Number of red marbles = 28
Number of green marbles = 30
Number of yellow marbles = 24
Radio = ?
Process
1.- Write the ratio
Red marbles : Yellow marbles
2.- Substitution
28 : 24
3.- Simplification
-Divide both terms by 2
14 : 12
-Divide by two both terms
7 : 6
-It is not possible to simplify more.
Answer:
It is closer to 7,000 than 8,000
401.752
multiply 386.3 by 4% (.04) then add the total to 386.3
