What Does As Much Mean In Math
What does this term mean in mathematics? 3
I have a math problem and everything is fine. Victoria weighs 5/7 more than Mario. Victoria weighs 125. How much does Mario weigh? I'm not asking you to answer, but what does the term mean?
Divide 125 by 5 and then by 7. It's like cutting Mario into 7 pieces. Each piece is 1/7 of Mario. So if you take these 5 parts, your weight is Victoria. So if you divide 125 by 5, you divide the weight of Victoria by 5 to get 25, which is 1/5 Victoria but 1/7 Mario. I'm sorry if I gave it to you, but it's hard to explain. Ok i
Multiply 5/7 times (weight Mario, variable). Draw an equation
5/7 * X = 125
(5 * X) / 7 = 125
(5 * X) / 7 * 7 = 125 * 7
5 * X = 875
(5 * X) / 5 = 875/5
X = 175
Both mean the same thing
So Victoria weighs 5/7 of Mario's weight.
