50 wells drilled are 25% of the total wells. Therefore, 1% (which is one twenty-fifth of 25%) of the wells is:
50 wells /25= 2 wells.

2 wells are 1% of the total wells. Therefore, 100% (which is 100 times as much as 1%) of the wells are:
2 wells *100= 200 wells.

Conclusion: The total number of wells that were drilled is 200 wells.

Hope this would help~

25% is equal to 100/25=1/4

We can substitute this into an equation to get the total number of wells where n can be equal to the total number of wells.

1/4*n=50
n/4=50
n=50*4
n=200

The total number of wells that were drilled was 200.

-7(n - 2) + 2n = -5(n + 6)
skad [1K]

Given the expression below

-7(n-2)+2n=-5(n+6)

To find n

Open the brackets

\begin{gathered} -7(n-2)+2n=-5(n+6) \\ -7n+14+2n=-5n-30 \\ -7n+2n+14=-5n-30 \\ -5n+14=-5n-30 \end{gathered}

Collect like terms

\begin{gathered} -5n+14=-5n-30 \\ -5n-(-5n)=-30-14 \\ 0\ne-44 \end{gathered}

Since, the sides are not equal,

Hence, there is no solution
