Q:
Write using algebra. A bucket holds c liters of water, but a jar holds 8 liters less. How many times as much water can the bucket hold as the jar?
Accepted Solution
A:
Let's just say that:
B = Bucket
J = Jar.
The amount of water J can hold is 8 liters less than B. So:
J = C - 8
(C represent the amount of water the bucket can hold)
And let's do the same for B. Since B holds C amount of water, the expression for this is:
B = C
