To solve problems like these, we simply need to break down the words and form the equation.

In this case, we start off with "The quotient," so we know we are talking about division. Next, we see "of 24 and," which means it has to be "24/ something."

24/

Finally, for this one, we see "twice a number." Number almost always means the variable (n), while twice means 2. This gives us 2n.

24/2n

Using the reasoning above, we can see that the first problem could be represented by 24/2n.

For the second problem, we can use the same reasoning on different values. We start off with "4 times," which can be represented as 4*.

4*

Next, we have "a number," which as stated previously, is almost always our variable (n).

4*n OR 4n

Finally, we have "decreased by two." Decreased generally refers to subtraction, while 2 is the value we are subtracting.

4n-2

Using the reasoning above, we can see the equation to represent the second problem is 4n-2.

Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

This is one of a variety of "subtraction solutions"--basically a different way to subtract by breaking numbers down into 10-digit chunks.  It's not especially helpful for small subtraction problems, but as math gets more complicated, this method will come in handy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's an example: Jim had a bag of 15 jelly beans.  He eats 8.  How many jelly beans does he have left?  <u>Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.</u>

Here, you need to "take apart" the 8 to make your 15 jelly beans 10, then you subtract the remainder of 8 to get your solution.  In other words,

 --"take apart" 8 into 5 and 3 (because you're going to need a 5 to make 15 into 10).  15 minus 5 equals 10.  HOORAY!  You have your 10.  Now, subtract the remaining 3.  10 minus 3 equals 7.  Huzzah--your final answer!

On paper, the problem looks like this:

<u>15 - 8 (</u><u>5, 3</u><u>) = ?</u>

15 - 5 = 10

10 - 3 = 7

So...15 - 8 = 7

The following transactions, in order, are expected to hit your checking account next month: $30 deposit, $20 withdrawal, $30 wit
vekshin1

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


$30.


Explanation:


Writing the transaction amounts as signed integers, we have:

+30, -20, -30, +40, -50


We want to add these together. Addition is commutative, which means we can add the positive integers before the negative:


30+40+(-20)+(-30)+(-50)

70+(-20)+(-30)+(-50)


We can now add the negative integers together:

70+(-50)+(-50)

70+(-100)


Adding these together, we have

-30


This means we would need at least $30 to avoid overdrafting the account.
