x+142 =3x+64

subtract x from each side

142 = 2x+64

subtract 64 from each side

142-64 = 2x

78=2x

divide by 2

78/2 = x

x=39

The number is 39

n-the\ number\\\\n+142=64\cdot3n\\\\n+142=192n\qquad\text{subtract n from both sides}\\\\142=191n\qquad\text{divide both sides by 191}\\\\\dfrac{142}{191}=n\to \boxed{n=\dfrac{142}{191}}


n+142=3n+64\qquad\text{subtract 142 from both sides}\\\\n=3n-78\qquad\text{subtract 3n from both sides}\\\\-2n=-78\qquad\text{divide both sides ny (-2)}\\\\\boxed{n=39}

Answer:

Percentage error is 0.0024 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial average distance between Earth and moon = 384467 km  

Distance measure by the scientist = 384476 km

Total variation in the distance calculation = 384476 – 384467 = 9 km.

Now we can find the percentage by dividing the variation in distance from the initial measurement and then multiply with hundred.

Percentage error = ( 9 /  384467 ) × 100 = 0.0024 %
