32ft you do 8*2*2*1 to get 32
Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?
5/6 ( )
so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have
5/6 ( s )
but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?
5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )
now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.
2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15
we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.
= 4/5
so our final answer would be:
5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!
5 baskets...each holds 15 apples....(5 x 15) = 75 apples
4 friends pick the same amount...
4 x 75 = 300 apples picked in total. <==
Solve for 1 variable
solve for x in second
add 2y to both sides
x=2y-5
sub 2y-5 for x in first equation
2(2y-5)-5y=-14
4y-10-5y=-14
-10-y=-14
add 10 to both sides
-y=-4
times -1
y=4
sub
x=2y-5
x=2(4)-5
x=8-5
x=3
x=3
y=4

It is more effective if I explain using examples. So, for multiplication, you just have to multiply the magnitude, then add the exponents of the base 10. For example, when you multiply 5.2×10³ and 1.6×10², the solution would be:
(5.2)(1.6)(10³⁺²) = 8.32×10⁵
Now, for division, you will have to divide the magnitudes, and subtract the exponents by numerator minus denominator. The solution is as follows:
(5.2/1.6)(10³⁻²) = 3.25×10¹
