You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

Answer:Solve. 2a + 3b = 5 6= a -5 a = 4 b = -1 1 a = 6 b=1 a=6 6 = -1 a=4 6 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)
Eliminate the parentheses: 24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)
24 + 3x = 3x + 18
Subtract 3x from each side: <em>24 = 18</em>
Look at that for a second. Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.
That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
Don’t now the answer but 60000 2% would be 1200 times 12 time 3 would be 43200$ for the 60k one and then 200 a month would be 7200 for three years that’s all I know
B is right:
because it is -2 will make it 0 so it is two unit to the left.
