your number was 12.
let x be the number:
(x * 2) + 50 = 74
To solve for x, we need to reverse what was done to get the answer of 74.
Since 50 was added to arrive at 74, we deduct 50 from 74.
74 - 50 = 24
We then divide 24 by 2 to get the original number.
24/2 = 12.
Your number was 12.
To check:
(12 * 2) + 50 = 74
24 + 50 = 74
74 = 74

This question is actually a lot simpler than it seems
for a quarter think about money - a quarter is 25 cents or 1/4 of a dollar - so 1 and a quarter yard in decimal form is equivalent to 1.25
now you need to find how many 1 and a quarter yards are in 3 yards - to do this you simply divide 3 by 1.25
3/1.25 = 2.4
so julie can cut 2.4 1 and a quarter long pieces from the string
