Question

If a = 4, b = 2, c = 5 then 3(4a-3c)/c-4 =

Answer 1

Use the Distributive Property.

Answer 2

PLug the values in! *^.^* We can work from there

Answer 3

3 (4(4)-3(5))/ 5 - 4

Answer 4

begin by solving what is in the parenthesis 4*4 = 16 and 3*5 = 15 so we have an equation that looks like: 3(16 - 15)/5-4

Using the Distributive Property: (3*16) - (3*15) / 5 - 4
(48 - 45)/ 5 - 4

Reducing: (48 - 45)/ 5 - 4
3/ 5 - 4
3/1

So your answer would be: 3/1
