1500 pounds. 1 ton is equal to 2000 pounds. Divide 2000 by 4 and get 500 multiply by 3 to create 3/4 of a ton and get 1500. 1500 pounds
I am not able to see the picture
2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
Let x be the common factor between chickens and ducks. Then:
6x/(5x-63)=3/1
15x-189=6x
9x=189
x=21
6x=123 chickens were on the farm
