Kayla won 47 super bouncy balls playing hoops at her school's game night. Later, she gave two to each of her friends. She only has 7 remaining. How many friends does she have? Write an equation and then solve.

20 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

47 - 7 = 40

40 ÷ 2 = 20

Just to double check, 2 x 20 = 40 + 7 balls left over = 47

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
