Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
its the same as adding positive numbers but with a minus sign so -3+(-2)= -5
Exact form: -55/18
Decimal form: -3.05 repeating
Mixed form: -3 1/18
Let the hours Kade worked = X
Theo would be X - 3 ( 3 less than Kade).
Now you have:
X + X -3 = 27
Combine like terms:
2x - 3 = 27
Add 3 to each side:
2x = 30
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 15
Kade worked 15 hours.
Theo worked 12 hours.
