You can get the answer by dividing the number 57 by the decimal of the percent thirty-eight (.38), you see you multiply a decimal by a number or a number by a decimal to get a smaller number, whereas dividing like you do here gets and bigger number. ( In this case the answer to your question) So in conclusion 57 divided by .38 = 150, your answer.
Hello!
no, that is not the correct way to isolate x. you were somewhat on the right track however.
here's the correct way:
add 7 to both sides to get -3x = -6
then divide both sides by -3 to get x = 2
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
Answer:
x = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
x-13 = 25
Add 13 to each side
x-13+13 = 25+13
x = 38
Check
38-13 = 25
25=25
