Sounds like that to me but that is symbolically showing of that's what your teacher means as mathematical sentence
Population of England in 2003 = 383 * 130,281 = 49,897,623
In 2008 this is 0.84 * 61,000,000 = 51,240,000
Increase = 51,240,000 - 49,897,623 = 1,342,377
Answer is 1,300,000 to 2 significant figures.
6 times 2 is 12. B is than answer
L: 1750, M:1750-480=1270
Lisa gave some stamps to Mark so Lisa now has 1750-x and Mark has 1270+x. Mark also has 3 times as many as Lisa now: (1750-x)*3=1270+x
5250-3*x=1270+x
4*x=3980, x=3980/4, x=995
So Lisa gave 995 stamps to Mark.
At first Mark had 1270 stamps. Lisa now has 1750-995=755 stamps.
