Simplify both sides of the equation
(20)(4)= 4(5x+1)
Simplify
80 = 20x+4
Flip the equation
20x+4 = 80
Subtract 4 from both sides
20x+4-4 = 80-4
20x = 76
Divide both sides by 20
20x/20 = 76/20
x= 3.8
There is one solution in this equation
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 pounds he ate 3/5 =0.23
Percent means parts out of 100
70%=70/100=7/10
7/10 of x=28
'of' means multiply
7/10 x=28
multiply both sides by 10/7 to get rid of fraciton
x=40
the number is 40
