"a number" means unknown or placeholder means x
"is equal to" means '='
'12' means 12

add 15
x=27
D=rt
So you're going to plug in the values listed: r= 9 1/2 and t=1 3/4
This will give you:
d=(9.5)(1.75)
Then you solve:
d=16.625
You should probably convert that decimal answer into a fraction since you're question gave it to you as a fraction.
