Algebra.Com's Answer #542932 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! OK. 2/3 of 1 is 2/3 \n" ); document.write( "So the question is: What part of 3 is 2/3? \n" ); document.write( "Our equation to solve, then, is: \n" ); document.write( "(2/3)x=3 multiply each side by 3 \n" ); document.write( "2x=9 \n" ); document.write( "x=4.5 \n" ); document.write( "In other words, there are 4.5 (2/3's) in 3 \n" ); document.write( "CK \n" ); document.write( "(2/3)*4.5=3 \n" ); document.write( "2*4.5=9 \n" ); document.write( "9=9\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps--ptaylor\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Whoaa. I misread the problem! \n" ); document.write( "So our equation to solve is: \n" ); document.write( "3x=2/3 divide each side by 3 \n" ); document.write( "x=2/9 =0.22222=22.2% or 2/3 is 22.2% of 3\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sorry!!!!!!!:(\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
