Solve each equation. Check your answer:
Z - 4 2/3= 2 2/3
THANKS SO MUCH

Answer 1

By 4 2/3, you mean 4 and 2/3 as a mixed number?

Answer 2

YES

Answer 3

First, add 4 2/3 to each side like this

z - 4 2/3 = 2 2/3
+ 4 2/3 + 4 2/3
Z = (answer here)

Answer 4

What do you think the answer would be?

Answer 5

just a second

Answer 6

i dont get the right answer. please help some more. i tried. am i doing something wrong. this is what i did on my texas calculator: 4(2/3) + 4(2/3) and i also did 2(2/3) + 4(2/3). is that right?

Answer 7

Both ways you did that would be correct. Give me a second and let me work out how to do it so I can explain it better :)

Answer 8

1) Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

2*3=6+2=8 // 4*3=12+2=14
\[\frac{ 8 }{ 3 } + \frac{ 14 }{ 3 } = \frac{ 22 }{ 3 }\]

Answer 9

22 ÷ 3 = 7 1/3

Answer 10

that gives me -1/3 though as my answer if i do 7(1/3) - 4(2/3)

Answer 11

is that what you wanted me to do

Answer 12

How did you get -1/3?

Answer 13

i did 7(1/3) - 4(2/3)

Answer 14

Why did you subtract 4(2/3) from 7(1/3)?
I'm not being harsh, just curious :)

Answer 15

i thought that 7(1/3) was what Z equaled because of what you said. i must have read your answer wrong.

Answer 16

Z would just be:

Z = 7(1/3), no subtracting or anything.

Do you understand what I did, though?

Answer 17

yes. but if you look at my first question you will see that i have to subtract to check the answer.

Answer 18

Ahh, sorry. I did not see that. That is correct, sorry for getting so confused xD

Answer 19

so is your answer right?

Answer 20

Yes it is.

Answer 21
