<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
70
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Assume that the number we are looking for is x
one tenth is interpreted into
Now, we know that one tenth of the number is 7, this means that:
* x = 7
Solve for x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, we get:
* x * 10 = 7 * 10
x = 70
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x = tex]5\frac{\textup{7}}{\textup{8}}\ in[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total height of the bench = 18 in
Depth of the stone bench =
=
= 3.375 in
Measure of stones =
=
= 3.5 in
measure of another stone =
=
= 5.25 in
let the height of the third stone be 'x'
Now,
The total height of the bench = depth of bench + Measure of two stones + x
18 = 3.375 + 3.5 + 5.25 + x
or
x = 18 - 12.125
or
x = 5.875 in
or
x = tex]5\frac{\textup{7}}{\textup{8}}\ in[/tex]
