Question

$$1/3 \times (9x-12y)$$

Evaluate

$3x-4y$

Solution Steps

Use the distributive property to multiply $\frac{1}{3}$ by $9x-12y$.

$$\frac{1}{3}\times 9x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-12\right)y$$

Multiply $\frac{1}{3}$ and $9$ to get $\frac{9}{3}$.

$$\frac{9}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-12\right)y$$

Divide $9$ by $3$ to get $3$.

$$3x+\frac{1}{3}\left(-12\right)y$$

Multiply $\frac{1}{3}$ and $-12$ to get $\frac{-12}{3}$.

$$3x+\frac{-12}{3}y$$

Divide $-12$ by $3$ to get $-4$.

$$3x-4y$$
