Answer:
x = 177/8
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must get rid of the fraction by multiplying 8 by both sides.
8 · 1/8(8x + 15) = 24 · 8
1(8x + 15) = 192
8x + 15 = 192
Then we simplify. First subtract 15 from both sides.
8x + 15 - 15 = 192 - 15
8x = 177
Then divide 8 from both sides.
8x/8 = 177/8
x = 177/8
The answer is 126.56 really hope that’s right:)
Let x represent the number originally signed up.
.. 360/x -6 = 360/(x +3)
.. 360*(x +3) -6x(x +3) = 360x . . . . . multiply by the product of denominators
.. 360x +1080 -6x^2 -18x = 360x
.. x^2 +3x -180 = 0
.. (x +15)(x -12) = 0
Solutions are x = {-15, 12}

The problem wording does not make clear whether the original number (12) or the number suggested by the bus company (15) went on the trip. It would be most reasonable for 15 to go, if the troop had people who were willing.
