Chad buys peanuts in 2-pound bags. he repackages them into bags that hold 5/6 pound of peanuts. how many 2-pound bags of peanuts should chad buy so that he can fill the 5/6-pound bags without having any peanuts left over ?

24/56=hx^7

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
