Question

(3) How many times 12 should be subtracted
from 240 to get 0?​

Answer 1

Answer:

20times to get zero ..

hope it helps..

Answer 2

Answer:

Infinite times.

Step-by-step explanation:

33–3=30

30–3=27

27–3=24

24–3=21

21–3=18

18–3=15

15–3=12

12–3=9

9–3=6

6–3=3

3–3=0

0–3=-3

-3–3=-6

-6–3=-9……………see what I mean?

If you are asking about how many times you can subtract 3 from the value 33, then the answer is infinitely. If you are asking about how many times you can subtract 3 from 33 without going negative, then 11 is the answer

EDIT:

There are actually 3 answers here, my mistake-

If you are talking about how many times you are able to subtract the value three from the value 33 before we are no longer talking about doing so(which I personally think you were) the answer is ONCE.

If you are talking about how many times you can subtract the amount positive 3 from the amount positive 33, then the answer is ELEVEN TIMES

If you are talking about how many times you can subtract the |3| from |33|, then the answer is INFINITE TIMES.
