let "a number" = x

a number is divided by 3 => x/3

14 is added to the quotient => (x/3) + 14

The result is 33 => " = 33"

Solve for x

(x/3) + 14 = 33

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do the other.

Subtract 14 from both sides

(x/3) + 14 (-14) = 33 (-14)

x/3 = 19

Isolate the x. Multiply 3 to both sides

x/3(3) = 19(3)

x = 19(3)

x = 57

57 is your original number

hope this helps

Brad says that if a second number is 125% of the first number, then the first number must be 75% of the second number. Is he cor
olga55 [171]

Answer: He is not correct.

Steps:

Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.

x_2 = \frac{5}{4}x_1\\\frac{4}{5}x_2 =x_1

In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),

then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.
