Answer: The fifth grade is 86

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are five grades, let the missing fifth grade be represented by x:

84 +79 +82 +88 + x /5 = 83.8

333 + x/5 = 83.8

Next, we cross multiply:

333 + x = 83.8 x 5

333 + x = 419

Subtract 333 from both sides of the equation to get the value of x

333 + x - 333 = 419 - 333

x = 86

One number is 6 times a first number .a third is 100 more than the first number .if the sum of the three numbers is 708,find the

Marta_Voda [28]

Say the first number is x, you would then have x and 6x and then x + 100. If you add all these together you get 8x + 100 = 708. You then subtract both sides by 100 and get 8x = 608. Divide both sides by 8 and you get 608/8 which = 76.
