There are 3/4 box of cereal remaining. you eat 2/5 of the remaing cereal. what fraction of the box do you eat?

the box contains cereal. Only 3/4 of the box has cereal remaining.

From the remaining cereal fraction, 2/5th is consumed.

then the portion of cereal consumed is

when the 'of' function is used it means the fractions should be multiplied

then numerators should be multiplied by numerators and denominators by denominators

this can be further simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by a factor common to both , in this case both 6 and 20 are divisible by 2

answer is 3/10th of the box is consumed

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
