Answer:
Equation: 
Solve for n: n = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
To first set up the equation, you need to look at the verbal description and translate into numbers and operations:
'three fourths a number' = 
'plus 8' = + 8
'is' =
'20 less' = - 20
'the number' = n
Put the expressions together:
'three fourths a number plus 8': 
'20 less than the number': n - 20
Set them equal to each other and solve: 
Add 20 to both sides: 
Subtract
from both sides: 
Multiply both sides by
: 
Solve for n: n = 112
Becasue the data may be skewed right or left (not symmetrical)
that is obvious when the median lean to left or right while the maximum and minimum records are still as they are.

Answer:
6 x
= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Rick started with 10/10 of the grapes because he had all of them at the start.
Then he gave 2/10 and 4/10 of the grapes away.
10/10 - 2/10 - 4/10 = 4/10 = 2/5 left
answer: Rick had 2/5 of the grapes left.
