5 hours because 7/5 *5/1=35/5 and 35 divided by 5 equals 7
To estimate this question, you can round the numbers to be compatible, to make it easier for yourself. The numbers should be able to be divided cleanly, as this is an estimate, not the actual problem solving. You could, for example, round 341 to 300, and 28 to 30, and divide them to get 10.
Hope that helped.
Answer:
I think is true good luck
Step-by-step explanation:
First let’s express the total number of marbles as such:
y(yellow marbles) + r(red marbles)=23; y+r=23
now let’s express the relation of yellow marbles to red marbles:
y=2r(2 times red marbles) - 4(4 less marbles); y=2r-4
since we figured out what y equals, we can plug into the first equation we created:
(2r-4)+r=23
now solve for r:
2r-4+r=23
combine like terms
3r-4=23
add 4 to both sides
3r=27
divide both side by 3
r=9
plug r back into first equation and solve for y:
y+9=23
subtract 9
y=14
there are 9 red marbles and 14 yellow marbles!
