Write an equation to represent the following statement. 333333 is 151515 less than kkk. Solve for kkk. k=k=k, equals

Written out, this equation is 33=k-15. Here's how we know:

33 is ("is" usually means "=")

15 less than k ("x less than y" usually means "y - x". Careful though, this does not mean "x - y"!)

So, it is written as 33=k-15, or k-15=33.

To solve for k, all we need to do is isolate it. To do this, add 15 to both sides.

k-15+15=33+15

k=48

b) 1/3 * 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

each smallest part is 1/15 since the written one is 1/5 and it's divided by 3 equal parts. (1/5 )/3 = 1/15 = 1/3 * 1/5
