Answer: The equation is given by: 9- 1/3x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be denoted by x.
Now, we are given a word phrase as follows one-third of a number less than nine is equal to seven.
Now this word phrase could be mathematically expressed as a equation by: one third of x is 1/3 x
And this number less than 9 is given by :
9- 1/3x
Now, this number is equal to 7.
I.e. we finally have:
9- 1/3x = 7
The first one in incorrect , it should be 130 but the rest are correct !
