Answer:

x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A 'sum' means addition, 'a number' is represented by a variable, in this case, I chose 'x'. I could have picked any variable I wanted.

The sum of three and a number means: three plus some number, which is

3 + x in math language. We write variables before constants, so it gets

rewritten as x + 3

A chess set is on sale for $75.00, which is 40% off of its original price. What was the original price of the chess set?

Okay, to solve this, let's use the variable 'p' to represent the original price:
Because we know the amount of discount and the percentage off, we know that 60% of the original price is $75.
Knowing this, we can write an equation:
0.6p = 75
There are multiple ways to solve this, but I'll just use the method I prefer
6p = 750
p = 750/6
p = 125
The original price of the chess set was $125
