When following the order of operations, you wouldn't subtract 4 from 12 in this equation. First, 6 would be multiplied by 12 then the product would then have 4 subtracted from it.
Subtracting 12.
Subtracting 3n from each side gives 12 = 4n or 4n = 12. n = 12/4 n = 3
48 less than 12:= 12 - 8= 4
The answer is 1/4. 1 whole would be 4/4 (4 over 4) so subtracting 3/4 (3 over 4) gives the result.
Well, subtracting 4 from 12 represents the difference between those two numbers, which is 8. It's like taking 4 away from a dozen, leaving you with 8. So, in simple terms, you're just left with 8 after the subtraction.
When adding or subtracting, convert all fractions in the question to a common denominator/ 1/2 + 1/4 - 1/3 = 6/12 + 3/12 - 4/12 = 5/12
- 4 - 12 = -16 You are subtracting from an already negative number making it more negative.
When following the order of operations, you wouldn't subtract 4 from 12 in this equation. First, 6 would be multiplied by 12 then the product would then have 4 subtracted from it.
6x-7 = 3x+5 6x = 3x+12 (subtracting -7) 3x=12 (subtracting 3x) x=4 (dividing by 3)
28. Subtracting a negative number gives the same result as adding a positive.
Subtracting 12.
Subtracting 3n from each side gives 12 = 4n or 4n = 12. n = 12/4 n = 3
48 less than 12:= 12 - 8= 4
