Hey there!
Let's first find an easier situation.
If we're saying:
How many fives are in ten?
We're doing 10 divided by 5, because we're seeing how many 5's go into 10.
It's no different here.
We will be doing 6 divided by 3/4, just as we did with our simpler situation.
Using our "keep, switch, flip" rule (keep first term, change to multiplication, take reciprocal of second term)
we get:
6 divided by 3/4
=
6 * 4/3
= 24/3
= 8 3/4's in 6.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a=2.48
c=9.52
Step-by-step explanation:
a+c=12
4a+7.5c=72.5 Given
a+c=12
-4a-7.5c=-72.5 multiply the equation by negative 1
-3a-6.5c=-60.5 simplify
-3a=-60.5+6.5c add 6.5c to both sides
a=-20.17+2.17c divide it by 3
now you would take that equation and plug it into an equation you already have since you have something to plug in for a, the easiest one to do is a+c=12
(-20.17+2.17c)+c=12 plug in the equation
-20.17+3.17c=12 simplify by solving for c
3.17c=30.17 add 20.17 to both sides
c=9.52 divide both sides by 3.17
now since you have found c, you can plug it in to you equation to solve for a now (use the ones from the second step). I am using the equation a+c=12.
a+9.52=12 plug in the variable and solve for a
a=2.48 subtract 9.52 to both sides
a=2.48
c=9.52
