Answer:

n = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

You will want to add all common factors with each other.

So that would be n + 3n + 5n which would be 9n.

Then -8 + 1 would be -7. So now it should be 9n - 7.

You are going to set 56 equal to 9n - 7, so that would be 9n - 7 = 56.

After that, you will have to leave 9n alone by itself, so you would have to add 7 to both sides. Your final equation should be 9n = 63.

After that, you should divide both sides by 9 since you want n alone.

So 63 ÷ 9 would be 7. So at the end, <u>n = 7.</u>

matrenka [14]
33100 = 7.8% of total
33100 = .078 x total (change from percent to decimal)
33100/.078 = total (divide both sides by decimal)

424358.9 = total

Round to 424,359 copies.
