Why is 16 the answer to 10. x / 2 - 5 = 3? I need an answer today.

Hi there!

x / 2 - 5 = 3

Begin by adding 5 to both sides to isolate for x:

x / 2 - 5 + 5 = 3 + 5

x / 2 = 8

Multiply both sides by 2 to have "x" alone on the left-hand side:

(x / 2) × 2 = 8 × 2

x = 16

3-4

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 3-4 because both 45 and 60 has a multiple of 15.

45/3=15

60/4=15

therefore the odds against selecting a red is 4-3
