Hey!
To solve this equation, we'd first have to apply the distributing rule to this equation.
<em>Original Equation :</em>

<em>New Equation {Changed by Applying the Distribution Rule} :</em>

· 3a · 2 +

And now we simplify.
<em>Old Equation :</em>

· 3a · 2 +

<em>New Equation {Old Equation Simplified} :</em>

- 12a + 4
<em>So, the equation

simplified is</em>
- 12a + 4.Hope this helps!

In words:
Three sandwiches, each costing $5.25, equals 1/3 of Cassie's total money
We can write the formula:
(5.25*3)=1/3x
Now solve:
15.75=1/3x
3(15.75)=x
x=$47.25
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first you want to take 0.60 from the total amount which is $4 leaving you with $3.40
then you want to divide the remaining amount of money by the cost of a candy bar ($0.85)
So you do 3.40/0.85 which is equal to 4
