Let n = the unknown number.
Quotient tells you use division.
n/7 = 39
Multiply both sides by 7 to cancel out the number in the denominator and isolate the variable.
n = 39(7) = 273
n = 273
Answer:
The number is 60
Step-by-step explanation:
65% out of what number is 39
.65 * n = 39
Divide by .65 on each side
.65*n/.65 = 39/.65
n = 60
I'm just guessing because there isn't much data, but the ages could be:
1, 8, and 9
3, 3, and 8
1, 8, and 9
1, 6, and 12
2, 3, and 12
3, 4, and 6
2, 4, and 9
(These aren't all the possible ages)
