Answer:
18, 9, 27
Step-by-step explanation:
36 ÷ 2 = 18. Dividing by 2 is the same as multiplying by 50%.
36 ÷ 4 = 9. Dividing by 4 is the same as multiplying by 25%.
Since 25% • 3 = 75%, you can do 9 (from previous) • 3 to get 27.
First of all why is there 2 similar equation connected to one another?
Second in order to solve this all you need to do is plug in the number and solve for x
For 485
85x+60=485
85x=420
X=5
Do the same thing and you get 3
