Answer:
[tex]60-x=24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of shampoo = 60 ounces
Amount of shampoo used in 1 wash = 1 ounce
Amount of shampoo used in x washes = x ounces
So, Remaining amount of shampoo = 60-x
We are given that 24 ounces will remain in the bottle
So, equation becomes : [tex]60-x=24[/tex]
Hence equation can be used to find x, the number of washes after which 24 ounces will remain in the bottle is [tex]60-x=24[/tex]
