If Joe has five rabbits, each rabbit represents a fifth. Therefore, Joe would have one white rabbit and the rest, which would be four-fifths, would be black.
I think u should check the first one again u made a mistake but the second one is correct if u need any more help ask me
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, add 9 to both sides
3/4x - 9 (+9) = 27 (+9)
3/4x = 36
Next, multiply 4/3 to both sides
(4/3)(3/4)x = 36(4/3)
x = 36(4/3)
Simplify.
x = 12(4)
x = 48
48 is your answer for x.
hope this helps
21499 +12*x=22.75*x
21499=22.75x-12x
21499=10.75x
x=21499/10.75≈1999.9≈2000 books
