Check the picture below.
recall that a solution is where both graphs meet.
1/4 time 1/4 equals a half...or you can think about it as 25 plus 25 equals 50, (1/2 of a dollar)
9-2/5-1 and you just divide it and should get the answer.
No that statement is not always true. There is only one solution to this equation.

Translating Sentences into Equations</h2>
A key part of this is recognizing certain words to change into operations or numbers:
- <em>quotient</em> = divide
- <em>three more</em> = add 3
- <em>'a/the number' </em>= use a variable (in this case, it's <em>w</em>)
<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
We're given:
- Three more than the quotient of a number and 7 equals 6
⇒ 'the quotient of a number and 7' tells us we divide <em>w</em> by 7: - Three more than
equals 6
⇒ 'three more than' means we add 3 to the fraction:
equals 6
