Answer:
3j + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
5j - (2j - 6) Distribute the negative inside the parentheses
5j - 2j + 6 Combine like terms
3j + 6
You have to be very careful how you set this up. For every girl (who counts as 1) there are 3 boys (who count as 3). The total number in the proportion is 3 + 1 =4. You are given a total, but that is both boys and girls. That's why you need the 4.
3/4 = x / 236 Cross multiply
4x = 3 * 236
4x = 708 Divide by 4
x = 708/4
x = 177
There are 177 boys at the school and 236 - 177 = 59 girls.
Answer:
Answer in simplified form is - 10 1/2 .
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given,
(5 1/4) ÷ (- 2 1/2)
This can be simplified as :
(5 1/4) ÷ ( -2 1/2)
Since 5 1/4 = 21/4 and -2 1/ 2 = -5/2
So we can write,
(5 1/4) ÷ ( -2 1/2) = 21/4 ÷ ( - 5/2)
or (21/4) / (-5/2)
or ( 21/4) * (-2/5)
or -42/20
or -21/10
or - 10 1/2 , this is the answer
Hence we get answer in simplified form as -10 1/2
Answer:
15 / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1 kg = 1000 g
3 kg
= 3 x 1000
= 3000 g
3kg to 800g
= 3kg : 800g
= 3000 : 800
= 30 : 8
= 30 / 8
= 15 / 4
