The easiest way is to use (& to memorize) the sum formula for a AP:
Sum = 1st term added to the last term & multiplied by half the number of terms
S = (a+l)n/2
S = (5 + 53)(7/2) = 203
♥ 7/12 in fraction is 7/12.
♥ In decimal it is <span>0.583333</span>
There would be 138 students in 6 classes because first you'd divide 207 from 9 and get 23 then you'd multiply 23 to 6 and get 138.
Real world example could be:
Consider x is time in minutes
Consider y is the amount of fish food required in grams
The equation could then represent how much food (in grams) that a fish needs to be fed x minutes after it was previously fed.
