Question

What number 2 whole 1/3 less than 3 times 4 whole 1/5?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

={3[4(1÷5)]-2(1÷3)}

=12÷5-2÷3

=36-1o÷15

=26÷15

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 12

So the equation should be x/2 = 3/4 x -3

Step one: multiply everything by 4 to get rid of fractions

4x/2 = 12/4 x - 12 which becomes 2x = 3x -12 and no more fractions.

Now subtract 3x on both sides, you get -x = -12, divide everything by -1 you get x = 12

Now to check: 1/2 of 12 is 6, 3 less than 3/4 of 12, is 3 less than 9 which is 6, so I got the same answer 6 so it checks.
