X=lottie's aples

give 1/4 of them to fred
origianly had 4/4, but gave 1/4 away so now has (3/4)x
eats 5 of them
(3/4)x-5
now she has 7 more than fred (fred has (1/4)x

so

(3/4)x-5 is 7 more than (1/4)x
(3/4)x-5=7+(1/4)x
add 5 to both sides
(3/4)x=12+(1/4)x
minus (1/4)x from both sides
(2/4)x=12
(1/2)x=12
times 2/1 both sides
2/2x=24
x=24

she had 24 to begin with

Evaluate. 72 - 3 + 9 × 8 ÷ 2 w =
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Request of activities so increase then division, at that point deduction and expansion.  

9*8 = 72  

72/2 = 36  

72-3 = 69  

69+36 = 105

Another way of saying it is:

Utilize the request for tasks to improve on mathematical articulations. The request is brackets, types and roots, augmentation and division, expansion and deduction. Duplication and division are "something similar" so you would utilize the first that happens from left to right.  

Bit by bit clarification:  

7^2 - 3 + 9 x 8 ÷ 2  

49 - 3 + 9 x 8 ÷ 2  

49 - 3 + 72 ÷ 2  

49 - 3 + 36  

49 - 39  

W=10
