Answer: -2(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
- Rewrite 6 as 2 x 3
- Factor out common term -2
The correct answer is C. 4.
Typically, we look to multiply by the bottom number (the denominator) in order to get fractions to cancel out. If we multiply 1/6 by 6, we get just 1, which is why we do it.
In this problem, you have two different denominators, 2 and 4. If you multiply them all by 2, the term -3/4m will still be a fraction.
-3/4m * 2 = -3/2m
As a result, we must try 4 instead. This causes all of them to cease being a fraction. Even the one with 2 as a denominator.
-1/2 * 4 = -2
Shelly runs 2.5 miles every 18 mins. To find out how many minutes it takes her to run one mile, let's divide 18 by 2.5
18 mins / 2.5 miles = 7.2 mins / mile
-6
