The sum of two numbers is 70 the larger number is 4 more than twice the smaller number?
Call the large number L and the small number S.L + S = 70L = 4 + 2SSubstitute the value of L in the second equation into the first equation to get:4 + 3S = 703S = 66S = 22Plugging 22 in for S (in either equation) gives:L = 48
What is .323232 as a fraction?
You solve this as follows. You call your number "x", and write:x = .323232... (equation 1) Then you multiply this equation by 100 (a one, followed by two zeros - this is because the length of the period is 2), and get: 100x = 32.323232... (equation 2) Now you can subtract equation 1 from equation 2, and solve for "x". This will give you "x" as a fraction.

What is the equation of the convert larger to smaller units?
The answer will depend on the two units. It will entail multiplication by a number that is greater than 1 (or division by a number smaller than 1).
When an equation has two variables there is a number of values that the two variables could have?
If an equation has two variables, we'll call them (x,y), the variables can be any value as long as both sides of the equation have the same result. If the equation was x = y, then the variables could be (1,1), (2,2), (3,3),etc...
What do you call it when you divide two numbers?

How do write 0.72 repeating as a fraction?
You need to call your number "x", then write the following two equations:(Equation 1) x = 0.727272... Multiplying by 100, you get: (Equation 2) 100x = 72.727272... If you subtract equation 1 from equation 2, and solve for "x", you will get the number as a fraction.
