A truck driver is loading a truck with crates of oranges and bananas. The truck can haul no more than 3500 pounds. Each crate of
oranges weighs 9 pounds and each crate of bananas weighs 14 pounds. The truck driver has received an order for 205 crates of bananas. What is the largest number of crates of oranges that the truck driver can haul without going over the limit?
So basically since it is addition we just add 9 to -2 to get 7. So then the equation becomes (3m/4)+7. Then we will multiply 7 by 4 to get common denominator so it will be (3m+(7*4))/4 which is (3m+28)/4.
