Answer:

145

Step-by-step explanation:

We will let x equal our unknown number. So:

(x + 5)/2 = 75

Now we can solve for x

We can first multiply both sides of the equation by 2. This will get rid of the fraction on the left side:

x + 5 = 75 * 2 ----->

x + 5 = 150

Next, subtract 5 from both sides:

x + 5 - 5 = 150 - 5 ----->

x = 145

The total rainfall in forks , washington, october was 8 3/8 in. in september ,60% less rainfall fell in October
iren2701 [21]
Rainfall in October in Forks, Washington = 8 3/8 inches
                                                                 = 67/8 inches
Percentage of rainfall that has fallen less in September in Forks, Washington = 60%
Let us assume the amount of rainfall in September in Forks, Washington = x
Then
100x/60 = 67/8
10x/6 = 67/8
5x/3 = 67/8
5x * 8 = 67 * 3
40x = 201
x = 201/40
   = 5 1/40 inches
So the amount of rainfall in September in Washinton is 5 1/40 inches.
