Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Obtain the greatest common factor of both 12 and 10

Factors of 10 = 1, 2, 5, 10

Factors of 12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

From the above, the greatest common factor of 10 and 12 is 2

Hence, smallest number of pencils using the boxes is 2

Which equation can be used to represent "three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of thr
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four as an equation.

Let the number be n.

The first part is: three minus the difference of a number and one:

3 - (n - 1)

The second part is: one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four:

1/2(3n - 4)

Now, let us equate the first and second parts:

3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)

PS: I really do not understand the options

The quotient of 24 and x equals 14 minus 2 times x (into an equation don’t solve)
Katen [24]

Answer:

24 / x = 14 - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient means division (÷ or /)

Quotient of 24 and x = 24 ÷ x

24 ÷ x is equivalent to 24 / x

14 minus 2 times x = 14 - 2x

So, the equation is

24 / x = 14 - 2x
