18. Let's start by finding the ratio, since this will make it easier to model it on the number line.
We can write 6 as
so
In order to do a division of fractions, we multiply both ends of the operation and put the result in the numerator, and then we multiply the two numbers in the middle and put them in the denominator:
In other words, the quotient is 8.
17. Now that we know the result of the operation, we simply mark the 8 on the number line:
Answer:
Expression for Larry will be;
Expression for Zach will be;
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Larry gets $7 for each of the 3 flower beds he weeds and Y dollars to edge a yard.
Amount for each flower bed he weeds = $7
Number of flower bed he weeds = 3
Total amount he gets for 3 flower bed he weeds =
Amount earn to edge a yard = Y
Total amount Larry will earn = $21 + $Y
Now Zach will get $25 to clean a garage and Y dollars to wash a car.
Amount earned to clean garage = $25
Amount earned to wash as car = $Y
Total Amount Zach will earn = $25 + $Y
The Both have to make X dollars to meet their goals.
Expression for Larry will be;
Expression for Zach will be;
