Answer:

3x - 10 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's reconsider the wording of this problem.

"Ten less than the quotient of a number and

3 is 8."

From less, we can assume 10 is being subtracted from something.

We have:

-10

Next, we know that the quotient is the sum of a multiplication problem. So, we know 3 has to be multiplied by something. We can see that the text says 'a number'. If they don't give us the value we can guess that it is the variable x.

Now:

3x - 10

From 'is 8' we know that must be the final sum of the equation.

Finally:

3x - 10 = 8

What is 16 out of 24 as a grade

Dominik [7]

16 out of 24 would equal around 67%, and that as a grade would be a D.
However, grades MAY vary from school to school.
But on average:
A= 100 through 90, B= 89 through 80, C= 79 through 70, D= 69 through 60, and an F= 59 and below that.
Keep in my mind that if your grade has digits after the decimal, it will be rounded (in your case) and that may also change your grade, for example if your grade is 79.7%, then it will be rounded to 80%, and your grade will be a B.
