The answer is 2 22/49 you divide 240 by 98 which gives you 2 44/98 but you have to simplify it down to 2 22/49
It is wrong because the equation is missing parentheses around the sum
When it says "the quantity of..." it always means parentheses. The correct equation is 2(3x+4)
To make a fraction into simplest form you have to find the greatest common factor. In this case it is 5. So then you divide both the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 5.
15÷5=3
100÷5=20
There is no factors that go into both 3 and 20 so simplest form is 3/20.
Answer:
X=-3/8 (x equals negative 3 over 8.)
Step-by-step explanation:
So, you have twice a number and six. That is going to be 2x*6, and that then simplifies into 12x. Now, 11 times the number, would be 11x. The difference between 11x and 3/8 would be 11x-3/8.
So, You now have 12x=11x-3/8.
Combine like factors. So, 12x-11x=-3/8.
Now, you have x=-3/8.
Hope this Helps!! (:
