how do you turn fractions into decimals? what do you do with the remainders? example: 3/16---what would it be as a decimal?

To turn a fraction into a decimal, divide the top number by the bottom number. Instead of a fractional remainder, you need to put a decimal point and four zeroes after it. Keep dividing until it comes out even.

For example 3.0000 divided by 16 = 0.1875

thank you very much! I really understand it now!!! =)

3y-3x=6

What are you trying to solve? This is a linear equation, what does the problem ask for?

To solve the linear equation 3y - 3x = 6, you need to determine the values of x and y that satisfy the equation. The problem may ask for the specific values of x and y, or it may ask for a relationship between x and y, such as finding the slope or determining if the line is parallel or perpendicular to another line.

To solve for either variable, you need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Here's how you can solve for y:

1. Start with the equation 3y - 3x = 6.
2. Add 3x to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -3x term: 3y = 3x + 6.
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for y: y = (3x + 6) / 3.
4. Simplify the expression: y = x + 2.

Now you have an equation that represents the relationship between x and y. If you are looking for specific solutions, you can substitute different values for x to find the corresponding values of y. If you are interested in the slope of the line, it is simply 1, as the coefficient of x is 1. If you want to determine if the line is parallel or perpendicular to another line, you would need additional information and equations to compare.
