<h3>20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number. Then the number is 13</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given statement is:</u></em>
20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number
We can translate the sentence into algebraic expression
Let "a" be the unknown number
Then,
20 subtracted from three times "a" is 6 more than "a"
Which means,
3a - 20 = 6 + a
3a - a = 6 + 20
2a = 26
Divide both sides by 2
a = 13
Thus the number is 13
Answer:
e = 5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2e+8) = 34
Distribute
6e +24 = 34
Subtract 24 from each side
6e +24-24 = 34-24
6e = 10
Divide each side by 6
6e/6 = 10/6
e = 10/6
Divide the top and bottom by 2
e = 5/3
I beleive it would be 5,2 but I'm not too sure
Lets begin with an example.
You have 100 apples. 40 % of your apples are 40. Sounds complicated?
Here is the calculation in words, number of apples times 40 percentage.
By equation: 100 * 40/100= 40. Simple huh?
% symbol represents 100.
% 15 equals 15/100; 20% is equal to 20/100 or 1/5 in a simplified way.
Have a look to question. 40 iris at last year, 15 % MORE iris this year.
What is the 15 % of 40 iris? That's the question at the end.
Recall apple example at the beginning.
40 iris * 15/100 = 6.
So, there are 6 MORE iris blooms this year. This year Savanna has totally 46 iris.
