Answer:You can divide 54.50 by just 20% with it being 272.5
Step-by-step explanation: You can use it be fraction by dividing it by 20 then you have 2.725 which is the answer.
You have to distribute so the correct answer would be 3s+21
Can’t see your answer choices but the absolute value of -3 is 3 so I would say 3 is your answer
Exact Form:

The easiest way to do this is to break it down and translate it before solving. Start with twice a number, if you use n to represent eh number, you will have 2n. Then, add the 'less than' part. 'Five less than' means that five is being subtracted from the next part, which is 2n. Now you have 2n - 5. The last translation is simple, 'equal to 57' will complete the equation as 2n - 5 = 57.
If you want to solve the equation, use the Order of Operations.
2n - 5 = 57 Add 5 to both sides
2n = 62 Divide both sides by 2
n = 31
