y=2/3y-3
1. y = 2/3 (9)-3 multiply 9 and 2 =18/3
y=18/3-3 divide 18 and 3 =6
y=6-3 subt. 3
y=3
2. -11=2/3x - 3
-11+3 = 2/3 x add 3 to both sides to cancel -3
-8=2/3 x
(3/2)-8 = (2/3)3/2 x multiply both sides by reciprical of 2/3
-24/2 = x divide
-12=x

Answer: The boys ate half a pie more than the girls did (5/10 more).
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 = 4/10
The difference between 9/10 and 4/10 is 5/10, or one half, so that's your answer.
7. 18.3 divided by 4 is 4.575. 4.575 is closest to 4.5 which would be our answer
8. 14.6 divided by 3 is 4.86. If we round it, then it would be 5 which would be the answer
10. The answer to the problem would be 11.58
