Step-by-step explanation:

Each gorilla eats   tons

Let's make this into an improper fraction for easier calculation. Note the rule below:

So, this mixed number becomes:

Now, we want how much 6 gorillas would eat in 1 year. So we multiply 6 with this to get:

So, 6 gorillas eat a total of 14 tons of eucalyptus in a year

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
