One <u>possible story</u> is:
I had 5 apples. My sister gave me 7, and now I have 12.
Explanation:
We are writing a story for 5+7=12. This means we need to start with 5 objects and somehow gain 7 more. In our story, we start with 5 apples and we get 7 more.
The last part is that our total must be 12. In our story, we end with 12 apples.
In 1 minute the copy machine copies = 24
That means
In 60 seconds the copy machine copies = 24
First we need to convert 5 minutes and 30 seconds to seconds
Then
5 minutes and 30 seconds = (5 * 60) + 30
= 300 + 30
= 330 seconds
So
In 330 seconds the copy machine will copy = (24/60) * 330
= 4 * 33
= 132
So in 5 minutes and 30 seconds the copy machine will copy 132 copies.
If each person got 1/6 then there is still 2/6 left over, =1/3. In fraction strips, we would do
1
1/3 1/3 1/3 1/3
1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6 for the overall tomato and then 1/6 1/6 for the remaining piece of the tomato.
Hope this helps, if you need any more help just comment :)
The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12

b and d
