  multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, "X of Y" means that X is multiplied by Y*. Here, you need to figure out what values are being multiplied.

The fraction of claims remaining unpaid after the first month is ...

  1 - 4/7 = 7/7 -4/7 = 3/7 . . . . fraction of claims unpaid after month 1

The problem statement tells you 2/3 of these are paid in the second month. That is ...

  (2/3) × (3/7) = 2/7 . . . . of the total of all claims

2/7 of all claims were paid in the second month.

* The interpretation of the word "of" will depend on the context. Here, we're referring to X being a percentage or fraction, as in "2/3 of 3/7".

In some uses, the word "of" may signify that X is multiplied by a fraction with Y as the denominator, as in "5 of 8" (meaning 5/8), for example. If Y is an object, the X is still a multiplier, as in "3 of the bags of cement".

step-by-step explanation:

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00

x=6 and x=3
