Let's do subtraction by first starting with the ones place and then the tenths place of the subtrahend.
45-4=41; 44, 43, 42, 41
41-.5= 40.5; 40.9, 40.8, 40.7, 40.6, 40.5
45-4.5=40.5
We can check by using addition.
40.5+4.5=
44+1=
45
I’m sorry I’m wasting an answer but I’m having some technical issues with Brainly so I will try answering a question to see if it works
Look at number 3 for the answer
Answer:
Imagine an easier version of this problem: You have a board 5 feet long that you must cut (divide, right?) into two equal parts. It is probably clear to you that you simply divide the length (5) by the number of parts you're dividing it into (2) to obtain the length of each piece (2.5 feet).
Use the same method for your problem 5 feet divided by 6 is 0.83 feet per piece.
We do not ordinarily divide feet into decimal portions, but instead into inches. Since an inch is 1/12 of a foot, you could simply say 5/6 = how many twelfths? or 5/6 = n/12 Solve this by inspection or by cross multiplying 5 times 12 equals n times 6. So n must equal 10, and your pieces of board are each 10 inches long.
Answer:
A=B-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Albert is known as the variable A.
Bill is known as the variable B.
If Albert is 5 years younger than Bill. Then the equation will be
a=b-5
