Multiply the variable k times 4 would give you 4k.
Then cross multiply 14x8 = 112
Therefore, you would have 4k = 112.
Divide 112 by 4 to get your answer!
If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.
Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.
Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.
Answer:54pounds
Step-by-step explanation:63-9=54
Rewrite it to simplify using order of operations.
P E M D A S
() ^2 × ÷ + -
So nw it's
5-1-(9÷3)-9
no now it's
(5-1)-(3-9)
4-(-6) I wrote the negative in parentheses to show its not an additional subtraction sign. also if you look it's sort of a plus sign. so when you subtraction (-6) from 4 it's actually 4+6
4-(-6)=10.
that's what I got. hope this helps.
