You multiply a number by 3 subtract 6 then add 2 the results is 20
what's the number ?
Let the number = x
multiply a number by 3
so, it becomes 3x
subtract 6 , so, 3x - 6
then add 2
so, 3x - 6 + 2
The result will be 20
So,
3x - 6 + 2 = 20
solve for x
3x - 4 = 20
Add 4 to both sides
3x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4
3x = 24
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 24/3
So,
x = 8
The answer is 21x-25 because all you have to do is multiply the 1/4 by the 84x and then multiply 1//4 by negative 100. A simpler way of explaining this is just that you need to distribute
In total it rained 96.6cm that year but on average it rained 100cm that year.
You would multiply 8.05 times the #of momths which is twelve.

The larger the sample size (number of people asked), the more accurate the results generally are, due to the law of large numbers.
