Guppies: u
Goldfish: o
3 times as many guppies as goldfish
3*o = u (there are more guppies than goldfish)
o + u = 20
o = 20 - u
Substitute in (20 - u) for o in the first equation and solve:
3* (20 - u) = u
60 - 3u = u
60 = 4u
u = 15
He has 15 guppies. Then substitute in the number of guppies into either equation to find the number of goldfish:
o + u = 20
o + (15) = 20
o = 5
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
1 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
There is one whole with one left over
Answer: 6 = 2(1+2), this is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, 6 = 2(1 +2) =
This question is to proove that 2(1 +2) = 6
First we open the bracket:
(2 × 1) + (2 × 2)
Multiply 2 by 1 = 2
Multiply 2 by 2 = 4
2 + 4 = 6
I hope this helps.
22 since it occurs the most.
