Agroup of 5 friends are sharing 2 pounds of trail mix. write a division problem and a fraction to represent this situation.

step-by-step explanation:

20% of 120 is 24. if you subtract 24 from 120 you get 96

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
