If you have two rational numbers, then they will always divide to produce a rational number.
You have information about how many 2-point shots, 3-point shots, and free throws (1 point) were scored by each player on a basketball team. You want to calculate how many points total were scored during the game. Which strategy will work?
A: For each player, add up the number of 2-point shots multiplied by two, 3-point shots multiplied by 3, and free throws. Then sum the totals you obtained for each player.
B: Sum the number of 3-point shots made by each player, then multiply by three. Sum the number of 2-point shots, then multiply by 2. Then add these two values to the sum of the number of free throws.
\[(a-b)+c = a-(b+c)\]
