Answer:
10 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
So in order to figure this out you have to work backwards. First, Daniel came and took a cookie. So when he took 1 there were 3 cookies available. Next Christine took one fourth of the cookies, meaning that the 3 available cookies are the remaining 3/4's. When she got there she took 1. Then Beth came and took 1/3. For it to be 3/3 there has to be 1 and 1/3 more cookies. Now there are 5 and 1/3 cookies. Amanda came and ate half of the cookies meaning that the amount of cookies we have now is the other half that she didnt eat. 5 and 1/3 plus 5 and 1/3 is 10 and 2/3. I hope this is correct.
Answer:
x=1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+5-3=5
9x=3
x=1/3
25-4x=16-4x
25-4x+4x=16-4x+4x
25=16
No solution
Contradiction
Try doing 40 - 34 first:
40 - 34 = 6
Now try 34 + 6
34 + 6 = 40
X=6
