Yes
3/4 in decimal form is 0.75
while if you divided each side (6/2 = 3 & 8/2 = 4) 6/8 = 3/4 and in decimal form it also equals 0.75
The box is 3 units high because 9x2x3 equals 54.
If I'm wrong I'm sorry.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: b
Discussion:
7b + 3 - 4b = 3 - 3(b+4) =>
7b + 3 - 4b = 3 - 3b -12 =>
(7b - 4b) + 3 = -3b - 9 =>
3b + 3 = -3b -9 => Add 9 to both sides
3b + 12 = -3b -9 + 9 =>
3b + 12 = -3b => ( add 3b to both sides)
6b + 12 = 0 => (subtract 12 from both sides)
6b = -12 =>
b = -12/6 = -2
Thank you,

Let's assume
total number of pieces in a cake is x
Gabe eats another fourth of the whole cake
so,
Gabe eats

cedric eats 3 pieces
so,
Cedric and Gade together eat

we are given
Cedric and Gabe eat 9 pieces cake together
so, we can set them equal
and we get

now, we can solve for x
Subtract both sides 3


Multiply both sides by 4


so,
total number of pieces are 24.........Answer
