Answer:

The first thing to do is to make the denominators of the fractions the same:

16 / 4 = 4.  4 X 3 = 12.

12/16.

16 / 1 = 16.  16 X 1 = 16

16/16

Now you write this out as a fraction equation:

(16/16 - 1/16) / 12/16

15/16 / 12/16

Since all you need to know is the whole number, you can easily tell that 15 / 12 is less than 2.  

Therefore, Alex is able to fill one 3/4-point containers with orange butter.

Amy spends 30% of her money on a
ioda

Answer:

£2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Badly worded, as they oftena are! But to me it means

30% spent

60% saved (I.e also taken away and put somewhere else)

10% leftover equals 20p

So 20p equals 10% of what she originally had, so 100% must be £2.00, does that make sense?

The equation given in the question is

ax + by = c  ,  b ≠ 0.

Express y in terms of x in the equation

by = c - ax

y = (c/b) - (a/b)x

Therefore the equation of y in terms of x is  y =(c/b) - (a/b)x
