All you have to do is move your decimal point over eight places to the right and then subtract that from the first number and you have your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 60 devil offspring.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of devils in the Island is 80.
Out of this 80, 75% are offspring from the two previous breeding seasons.
This percentage in a whole number is what the question requires.
The number of offspring from previous seasons is:
= Percent of offspring from previous seasons * Total number of devils
= 75% * 80
= 60 devil offspring.
Begin solving like you normally would. Add 2.25 to both sides and subtract 9x from both sides to try getting all x values on one side. However, you will find that after subtracting 9x from both sides, all x values go away, and you end with -2.25=1.6. This is not true (-2.25 is not 1.6), so the answer is no solution. There is no value of x which satisfies that equation.
