Question

3m+8s=123
what is the answer and why

Answer 1

the answer is 3(17)+8(9)

Explanation:

this is just the equation to solve it

3x(26-y)+8y=123

distribute- 78-3y+8y=123

do the variables first always- 78+5y=123

then subtract 78 from both sides- 5y=45

then divide by 5- y=9

Hope this helped

Answer 2

the answer is not 123 it is 188

Explanation:

3m is same as saying 180s, because 60s = 1m

so 3 *60 = 180 +8 = 188

so i think the answer is 188
