Initially, there were equal amount of bananas and kiwis on the table. Sarah put 6 bananas and 8 kiwis in each basket. After the baskets were ready there were 16 bananas and 8 kiwis left on the table. How many baskets were made?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let x be the number of baskets.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Equation : \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer :
\n" ); document.write( " baskets were made.
\n" ); document.write( "


\n" );
document.write( "There is a certain number of baskets
\n" );
document.write( "The number of bananas is the same as the number of kiwis
\n" );
document.write( "With number of baskets being x, we get: 6x + 16 = 8x + 8
\n" );
document.write( "6x - 8x = 8 - 16
\n" );
document.write( "- 2x = - 8
\n" );
document.write( "x, or  \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
