What do you need to do to 24 to turn it into an 8? (don't say subtract 16...something else)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide it by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right. so divide the 24 and the 36 by 3 and the answer will be obvious

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its 12 :O divide both numerator and denominator by 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12
