"the difference of a number x and 4": x - 4
"is": =
"3": 3
Combine the terms so that it looks like the sentence numerically:
"the difference of a number x and 4 is 3": x - 3 = 4
x - 3 = 4 is your answer.
To solve for x:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 3 to both sides.
x - 3 = 4
x -3 (-3) = 4 (-3)
x = 4 - 3
x = 1
1 is your answer for x.

Answer:
8/7 min = 
Step-by-step explanation:
A rate 2 2/3 = 8/3 min per tank
B rate 2 min per tank
thus:
A rate = 3/8 tank per min
B rate = 1/2 tank per min
A+ B = 3/8 + 4/8 = 7/8 tank per min
7/8 x = 1
x = 8/7 min
