Twice: 2 times
The sum of: add
A number: choose a variable, like x
---Thus "the sum of a number and 4" becomes "add x and 4" which, mathematically, is "x+4"
-----Continuing to put it all together, "Twice the sum of a number and four" becomes "2 times (x+4)" which, mathematically, is "2(x+4)"
Is: equals
-------"Twice the sum of a number and four is" becomes "2(x+4)="
23 less than: subtract 23. This one tends to trick people; "23 less than" will become "__ - 23", NOT "23 - __"
three times the number: 3 times x
---"23 less than three times the number" becomes "subtract 23 from 3 times x" which, mathematically, is "3x-23"
-------So the final phrase: 2(x+4)=3x-23"
Answer:
An improper fraction is always 1 or greater than 1. And, finally, a mixed number is a combination of a wholenumber and a proper fraction.In a proper fraction, the numerator is always less than the denominator. Examples ofproper fractions include and
The equal length of the logs will be 200 feets each.
Since the lengths in feet of three pieces of timber are 144, 216, 240 and the operator wants to cut them into 3 equal sizea, this will go thus:
= (144 + 216 + 240) / 3
= 600/3
= 200 feets each
Therefore, there'll be an equal length of 200 feets each.
