First, some defintions
reciprocals are like a/b and b/a or 5/1 and 1/5
remember,
john's fraction is reciprocal of sarah's
john=a/b
sarah=b/a
david multiplies his by sarah and gets 12/35
(b/a)(david)=12/35
multplies his number by john and gets 12/35
(a/b)(david)=15/7
hmmm
(b/a)(david)=12/35 and
(a/b)(david)=15/7
if we divide them then we do
square root both sides
therefor
b=2 and a=5
john's number is a/b=5/2
sarah's number is 2/5
david, hmm
sarah times david=12/35
2/5 times david=12/35
times both sides by 5/2
david=60/70
david=6/7
check other
john times david=15/7
5/2 times 6/7=15/7
30/14=15/7
15/7=15/7
true
sarah's favorite number is 2/5
john's favorite number is 5/2
david's favorite number is 6/7
Divide each term by <span>4</span> and simplify.Tap for less steps...Divide each term in <span><span><span>4x</span>=y</span><span><span>4x</span>=y</span></span> by <span>44</span>.<span><span><span><span>4x</span>4</span>=<span>y4</span></span><span><span><span>4x</span>4</span>=<span>y4</span></span></span>Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.So your answer would be x=y over 4

Given :
An online store sells only two types of bandanas: cotton bandanas and silk bandanas. Cotton bandanas cost $7 each, and silk bandanas cost $11 each.
Mrs. Tran spent a total of $93 on bandanas at this store.
To Find :
How many cotton bandanas did Mrs. Tran buy.
Solution :
Let, number of cotton and silk bandanas buys are x and y respectively.
So, 7x + 11y = 93
x = (93 - 11y)/ 7
Putting y = 1 , x = 82/7 ( not possible since x can only be positive integer )
Putting y = 4 , x = 7
Therefore, Mrs . Tran will buy 7 cotton bandanas.
Hence, this is the required solution.
First we must get rid of the -3 in the denominator
to do this you need to multiply both sides by -3
2x - 1 <span>< -5
now add 1 to both sides
2x </span><span>< -4
finally, divide both sides by 2
x </span><span>< -2
i hope this helps !!</span>
