Use cross multiplication so you have
7/x = 2/4
multiple 7 and 4 to get 28 and multiply x and 2 to get 2x and set them equal to each other
so your new equation is 2x=28 and then you just need to solve for x
The answer is x=14
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: number of muffin plates
We now write the expression that models the problem.
We know there are 4 muffins in each dish, therefore, we have:

Substituting for x = 0 we have:
Answer:
There are 0 lemon muffins
d: 0
She started with x.
After 1 year, she had 1.025x.
She withdrew <span>£1000, so now she has 1.025x - 1000.
Then it earned interest for 1 year and ended up as </span>1.025(1.025x - 1000).
The actual amount of money was £23 517.60.
Therefore,
<span>1.025(1.025x - 1000) = 23517.60
1.025x - 1000 = 22 944
1.025x = 23 944
x = 23 360
Her original deposit was </span><span>£23 360</span>
