Answer:
The answer is 14 because
3x - 25 = 17
You want to get the 25 over to the 17 side so you add 25 to the 17
3x = 42
Then you divide 42 by 3 to get x alone
42/3 = 14
Therefore:
x = 14
A mathematical equation
1 hour = 60 minutes
15 minutes = (60/15) = 1/4th of an hour
1/4 = 0,25
<span>15 minutes is 25% of an hour</span>
