Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to simplify.
2/3x = 12
To isolate x, we should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 to make x equal to a value:
Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 18
Hope this helps!
Answer:
9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
mean is calculated as
mean = 
, then
= 5.7 ( multiply both sides by 10 )
sum = 57
let x be the distance he needs to cover so mean is 6 , that is
= 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )
sum + x = 66 , that is
57 + x = 66 ( subtract 57 from both sides )
x = 9
That is he would have to run 9 miles

Vera has 5 pairs of necklaces and wants to own 22 pairs. That means she needs to purchase 17 pairs at $1 per pair.
Vera needs to spend $17.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of children, then
number of men = 4c and number of women = 2c
Sum the numbers of each and equate to 266
4c + 2c + c = 266, that is
7c = 266 ( divide both sides by 7 )
c = 38
Thus
4 × 38 = 152 and 2 × 38 = 76
The group consists of 38 children, 152 men and 76 women
