When you divide a fraction less than 1 by a whole number greater than 1 is the quotient less than, greater than, or equal to the dividend?

Less than one

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that you have a pizza divided into some equal parts (in m parts). Each of these parts is represented by a fraction () less than 1. If you want to share one part of this pizza between some friends (for example, between n friends), you should divide this part of pizza into equal number of parts (in n parts). What do each friend get? A part from a part. The quotient is less than one.

Mathematically,

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
