Answer: 2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(22-x)=17-x

66/4-3/4x=34/2-x

33/2-3/4x=34/2-x

1/4x=1/2

x=2

Answer:

that's 2kg because 22*.75 is 17 the difference is -5 each time. 17- another 5 is 12 or 2/4 the original amount. you keep going and at the end you are left with 2kg

What is 56.398 rounded to the nearest tenth?
Vesna [10]
Well when you round to the nearest 10 it will be 1 number after the point (this is due to that 10 only has one 0.) now we know that if there is a number bigger than 5 besides the number they ask you in this case the first after the point you will add 1 to that number. in this case you will add 1 to the 3. this will give you the answer of 56.4

Hope this helps
