Since Jason swam 2.5 miles in 2 hours - divide the miles/time (2.5/2 = 1.25)
The picture isn’t showing up
6 - a =

(9a - 18)
First, simplify

to

/ Your problem should look like:
Second, multiply both sides by 3. / Your problem should look like:
Third, expand. / Your problem should look like:
Fourth, add 3a to both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Fifth, simplify 9a - 18 + 3a to 12a - 18. / Your problem should look like:
Sixth, add 18 to both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Seventh, add 18 + 18 to get 36. / Your problem should look like:
Eighth, divide both sides by 12. / Your problem should look like:
Ninth, since 3 goes into 12 to get 36, simplify

to 3. / Your problem should look like:
Tenth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like:

Answer:
a = 3 (one solution)
600300 or 6.003x10^5
3.000= 3 , 6.000= 6
3 x 10^2 = 3 x 100 = 300
6 x 10^5 = 6 x 100000 = 600000
600,000 + 300 = 600300
