Answer:
x = 1/18
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3x = 12
multiply both sides by 3x
2/3x(3x) = 12(3x)
2 = 36x
x = 1/18
The strategy is following
Smaller number subtract from the greater. Result is distance between two numbers
For example you have 3 and 8
8-3-5
5 is the distance between 3 and 8
It also works with the negative numbers, for example 3 and -5
3-(-5)=8
Hey!
Ignore the birthday party stuff and go to 95 first. Subtract 9 from 95 you get the answer 86. Next you need to find how many times 8 goes into 86. 86/8 which is 10 with a remainder of 6. Therefore, Guy can donate to 6 animal shelter. I hope this helps with future problems.
