Answer:
x = 36/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 6 from both sides
x/3+6-2x-6 = -6-6
Simplify
x/3 - 2x = -12
Multiply both sides by 3
x/3 * 3 - 2x * 3 = -12 * 3
Simplify
-5x = -36
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = -36/-5
Simplify
x = 36/5
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
(# of pencils)x(3/4)=9
(# of pencils)x(0.75)=9
(# of pencils)=9/(0.75)=12
Answer:
50, 40, 30, 250, 350
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 = 0.5, 0.5 x 100 = <u>50</u> (0.5 -> 5 -> 50)
2/5 = 0.4 (10 / 5 [the denominator] = 2, 0.2 x 2 [the numerator] = 0.4), 0.4 x 100 = <u>40</u> (0.4 -> 4 -> 40)
3/10 = (10 / 10 [the denominator] = 1, 0.1 x 3 [the numerator] = 0.3), 0.3 x 100 = <u>30</u> (0.3 -> 3 -> 30)
5/2 = 2.5 (2 1/2), 2.5 x 100 = <u>250</u> (2.5 -> 25 -> 250)
7/2 = 3.5 (3 1/2), 3.5 x 100 = <u>350</u> (3.5 -> 35 -> 350)
Note: I'm not sure if I understand the question completely, but I changed the fraction into a decimal and multiplied it by 100. Not sure what it means by "<u><em>Divide</em></u><em> fraction</em>".
