Answer:
I believe your answer is commutative property
Four? Isn't it stated in the question? Unless I am assuming wrong.
The most important part of this question is understanding the words of the problem. The trick lies in the words of the problem. Once the web of words is simplified, the problem becomes very easy. The main thing is converting the words into numbers.
Let us assume the unknown number = x
Then from the question we get
(x/4) = (x/5) + 1
(x/4) - (x/5) = 1
(5x - 4x)/20 = 1
x/20 = 1
x = 20
So the unknown number is 20
Answer:
x=-36
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the 7/2x +1/2x to be 8/2x which means that it'll be 4x=18=9/2
then subtract 9/2x on both sides so itll be
-9/2x -9/2x
because if you do 8/2-9/2 it's -1/2
then multiply the reciprocal to both sides so
which then cancels out -1/2 and makes it
x=-36
