PLZ HURRY IM TIMEDDD

Sameer chose 12 different toppings for his frozen yogurt sundae, which was Three-fourths of the total number of different toppings available at the make-your-own sundae shop. To determine the number of different toppings available at the shop, Sameer set up and solved the equation as shown below.

Three-fourths = StartFraction x over 12 EndFraction. Three-fourths (12) = StartFraction x over 12 EndFraction (12). 9 = x.

Which best describes the error that Sameer made?
Sameer did not use the correct equation to model the given information.
Sameer should have multiplied both sides of the equation by Four-thirds instead of by 12.
The product of Three-fourths(12) is not equal to 9.
The product of Four-thirds and StartFraction 1 over 12 EndFraction should have been the value of x.

The error made by Sameer while creating the algebraic equation: Sameer did not use the correct equation to model the given information.

An algebraic equation can be defined as a mathematical statement in which two expressions are set equal to each other.

It is given that Three-fourths of the total number of different toppings available at the make-your-own sundae shop = 12

The algebraic equation given by Sameer is wrong, the correct equation will be:

Let the total number of toppings be x.

[tex]\frac{3}{4} x = 12\\ \\x = 12 (\frac{4}{3} ) = 16[/tex]
