How do you make 'a' the subject of the formula: ab - cd = ac

First bring all terms in 'a' to the left side of the formula by subtracting ac from both sides

ab - ac - cd = ac - ac
ab - ac - cd = 0
now add cd to both sides
ab - ac -cd + cd = cd
ab - ac = cd
now factor the left side by taking out the 'a'
a(b-c) = cd
now divide both sides by (b-c)
a = cd / (b-c)
done

Which of the following mixed numberd is represented by the letter A in number line shown?

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is divided into 9 parts between 1 and 2

A is situated 6 parts of the way between 1 and 2, that is

$\frac{6}{9}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$ ← cancelling by 3

Hence

A = 1 + $\frac{2}{3}$ = 1 $\frac{2}{3}$ → A
