Additional Arithmetic Rules: Using variables

First, we open the parentheses and change the sign accordingly.

Since there are only positive numbers within the parentheses, multiplying by a negative will give us negative numbers:

$x-3x-4y=$

Now we group the X factors:

$x-3x=-2x$

We obtain:

$-2x-4y$

First, we open the parentheses and change the sign accordingly.

Since there are only positive numbers inside the parentheses, multiplying by the minus will give us negative numbers:

$10y-5y-3z=$

Now we group the Y factors:

$10y-5y=5y$

Now we obtain:

$5y-3z$

First, we open the parentheses and change the sign accordingly.

Since there are only positive numbers inside the parentheses, multiplying by minus will give us negative numbers:

$7x-4b-3x=$

Now we group the X factors:

$7x-3x=4x$

Now we obtain:

$4x-4b$

To solve this problem, we'll simplify the expression $2x : (7y : 4x)$ using properties of division:

• Step 1: Recognize $a : (b : c) = a \times \frac{c}{b}$. This changes the nested division into a singular operation.
• Step 2: Substitute into our expression: $2x : (7y : 4x) = 2x \times \frac{4x}{7y}$.
• Step 3: Simplify the expression $= 2 \times \frac{4x^2}{7y}$.
• Step 4: Calculate the product: $= \frac{8x^2}{7y}$.
• Step 5: Convert to a mixed number if necessary: $= 1\frac{1}{7}\frac{x^2}{y}$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $\frac{8x^2}{7y}$, which can be expressed as a mixed number $1\frac{1}{7}\frac{x^2}{y}$.

To solve this problem, follow these steps:

• Step 1: Simplify the inner division $8t : 3m$. This can be rewritten as $\frac{8t}{3m}$.
• Step 2: Find the reciprocal of $\frac{8t}{3m}$. The reciprocal is $\frac{3m}{8t}$.
• Step 3: Multiply $32m$ by the reciprocal of the inner division result, which is $\frac{3m}{8t}$.

Carrying out the multiplication:

$32m \times \frac{3m}{8t} = \frac{32m \times 3m}{8t} = \frac{96m^2}{8t}$

Simplify the expression $\frac{96m^2}{8t}$ by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 8:

$= \frac{12m^2}{t}$

Thus, the final simplified solution is $12\frac{m^2}{t}$.

The correct choice from the given options is $12\frac{m^2}{t}$.

Let's write the expression as a fraction:

$\frac{x}{x\times y}=$

We'll reduce between the x in the numerator and denominator and get:

$\frac{1}{y}$

The problem asks us to simplify the expression $\frac{14a}{2a \cdot 3a}$.

First, simplify the expression in the denominator:

• The denominator $2a \cdot 3a$ can be expanded by multiplying the constants and variables separately: $2 \cdot 3 \cdot a \cdot a = 6a^2$.

Now, the expression becomes:

• $\frac{14a}{6a^2}$

Next, simplify the fraction by canceling out common factors in the numerator and the denominator:

• Both the numerator and the denominator contain the variable $a$. We can divide both by $a$, resulting in:
• $\frac{14}{6a}$

Further simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:

• $\frac{14 \div 2}{6 \div 2a} = \frac{7}{3a}$

Thus, the simplified form of the expression is $\frac{7}{3a}$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $\frac{7}{3a}$.
