Answer:

$199.89

Step-by-step explanation:

The bike costs 266.52

The parents are contributing one fourth of this (1/4)

We need to find 1/4th of 266.52

Divide 266.52 by 4 to find out how much Justin's parents are contributing to the bike

The answer is 66.63

Now subtract 66.63 from 266.52

Justin has to pay a total of 199.89

What is 7 1/12 - 2 3/4 in simplest form
stich3 [128]

7 1/12  -  2 3/4

First we have to change mixed numbers to improper fractions

7 1/12  =  7 x 12 + 1 = 85   85/12

2 3/4  =  2 x 4 + 3 =  11     11/4

 85/12 - 11/4

Now we need to find the LCD (least common denominator) for 4 and 12

4, 8, 12

12

12 is our LCD, so it becomes our new denominator

85/12 would stay the same because the denominator wasn't changed but for 11/4 our new denominator is 12, so our fraction will change.

11/4  =  33/12 

4 goes into 12, 3 times. What you do to the bottom, you do to the top.

3 x 11 = 33

3 x 4 = 12

So, our new fraction is 33/12.  Now we subtract

85/12  -  33/12  =  52/12

Now we convert back to a mixed number

52 ÷ 12 = 4 4/12 reduce

4 1/3

Hope this helps.

4x - 7 (2 - x) = 3x + 2
juin [17]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x−7(2−x)=3x+2

4x+(−7)(2)+(−7)(−x)=3x+2(Distribute)

4x+−14+7x=3x+2

(4x+7x)+(−14)=3x+2(Combine Like Terms)

11x+−14=3x+2

11x−14=3x+2

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

11x−14−3x=3x+2−3x

8x−14=2

Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.

8x−14+14=2+14

8x=16

Step 4: Divide both sides by 8.

x=2
