In math, when you see the word "of" it usually means "times".
So the question is:
<u>2/3 times something = 10</u>
Multiply each side of the equation by 3 :
2 times something = 30
Divide each side by 2 :
<em> something = 15</em>

Answer:
x=5 y=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+y=9 ------eqn1
y=4-2x -------eqn2
using substitution
put y=4-2x into eqn1
3x+4-2x=9
x=5
put x=5 into eqn2
y=4-2(5)
y=4-10
y=-6
Answer:
David gets 28 more than Dan
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim: Dan : David: total
3 : 1 : 5 : 3+1+5 = 9
Jim gets 21
21/3 = 7
Multiply each number by 7
Jim: Dan : David: total
3*7 : 1*7 : 5 *7 : 9*7
21 : 7 : 35 : 63
David has 35 and Dan has 7
35-7 = 28
David gets 28 more than Dan
