    For number 2. Will - Sam = 9 - 7 = 2 = 6
    Both 2 and 6 are divisible by 2.
    So 1 = 3
    3 x 7 : 3 x 9
    7: 9

  • @chelseaclarke8474
    @chelseaclarke8474 Рік тому +2

    For the first problem, what did x represent? I am a little confused.

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  Рік тому +2

      Introducing an x in a ratio allows us to look at any numbers that keep that ratio. For example, the ratio 1:2, we transform to 1x:2x. So if x = 3, we get 3:6, if x = 5. we get 5:10. All those ratios 1:2, 3:6, and 5:10 are equivalent. X represents any number we can multiply the ratio by to get an equivalent ratio. We do this so that we can find the exact numbers we need in the context of the word problem.

    Why did you flip 7x to negative and put it on both sides? And how did you get the 2

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  Рік тому +1

      9x = 7x +42, I subtracted 7x on both sides of that equation to get the x terms on both sides. 9x - 7x = 2x because 9x - 7x = (9-7)x [Distributive Property] = 2x.

    Thx bro but I didn't properly understand Q2👍

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  Рік тому +2

      Sorry for that! That question has a lot going on. The key to understanding questions like that is plugging in real numbers to see the pattern. Once you see the pattern, define the pattern with algebra. Once you have an algebraic expression, the question is solvable.
      There is quote, I think it is from Abraham Lincoln, that goes, "Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." Questions like 2 are the embodiment of that quote because for this question, you need to spend a lot of time understanding what is going on, and carefully looking for the trend to describe with algebra.
      Best wishes!
