It cost Chloe $7.05 to send 47 text messages. How many text messages did she send if she spent $26.70?

178 text messages

Step-by-step explanation:

You have do 7.05 times 3 and you get 21.15. Then you do 26.70 minus 21.15 and you get 5.55. Then you do 7.05 divided by 47 then you get 0.15.  SO each messages is 0.15 cents so you do 0.15 times 37 and you get 5.55 and then you add 21.15 and 5.55 and you get 26.70. Then you take 141 and add it to 37 and you get 178 as your answer          

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

1/3 + 1/3 ≠ 2/6 because 1/3 alone = 2/6  

step by step explanation:

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3       2/3=4/6
