let "a number" = x
a number is divided by 3 => x/3
14 is added to the quotient => (x/3) + 14
The result is 33 => " = 33"
Solve for x
(x/3) + 14 = 33
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do the other.
Subtract 14 from both sides
(x/3) + 14 (-14) = 33 (-14)
x/3 = 19
Isolate the x. Multiply 3 to both sides
x/3(3) = 19(3)
x = 19(3)
x = 57
57 is your original number

720 miles traveled on 60
gallons of gasoline.
Express this on its Unit Rate.
To get the answer, we need to divide 720 miles by 60 gallons of gasoline
=> 720 / 60 = 12 miles /gallons
Thus, in every 1 gallon of gasoline, you can travel 12 miles.
So, the expression would be like this:
720 miles / 60 gallons = 12 miles / gallon
Let’s check our answer
=> 12 miles x 60 gallons = 720 miles.
Thus, we got the correct answer.
286 ÷ 5 1/2 hours = 286 ÷ 5.5 = 52 final answer
