Answer:
123 crackers
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/3 of the box contains sesame seed crackers, then, 2/3 of the box contains whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers.
Total number of whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers = 53 + 29 = 82
Let x be the total number of crackers in the box, so we will have the equation
2/3 x= 82
x = 82 ÷ 2/3; we will get
X =82 x 3/2
X = 123 crackers
On the bottom left, the answer is subtraction property of equality because you need to subtract 4x to the 7x to simplify the equation.
