w-(-3)=7
Pretend that there is a -1 in front of the bracket
w-1(-3)=7
Mutiply the bracket by -1
(-1)(-3)=3
w+3=7
Move +3 to the other side. Sign changes from +3 to -3.
w+3-3=7-3
w=4

If i did the math correctly one number is 50
19 has two factors: 1, 19
21 has four factors: 1, 3, 7, 21
23 has two factors: 1, 23
And we need a number that has more than four factors and is greater than 25.
Factors of 50- 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50
50has six factors and is greater than 25.
To do it without a calculator:
10% of 67 is 6.7
6.7 x 8 is 53.6 (80%)
1% of 67 is .67
53.6 - .67 is 52.93 (79%)
The answer is either x = -1 or x = 4.
