This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
The answer is 1.52 to your question.
Ok so the first step would be to distribute 3 into 3x and -6. So 3 times 3x would be 9x. 3 times -6 is -18.
the equation now is
18 = 9x - 18
Now you would have to do inverse operation
18 = 9x - 18
+18 +18
36 = 9x
Now you would divide 9x into 36 to isolate the variable
36 / 9x = 4
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x+6x-3x)
(5+30-15)x
if you open the brackets, it will be 5x+30x-15x
