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:
~ <em>50 centimeters of the poster ~</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us plan out our steps, and solve for each:
<em>1. Given the information, let us create a proportionality as such:</em>
<em />
5 = 1 ⇒ x - centimeters of the poster
x 10
<em>2. Now let us cross multiply, and solve through simple algebra for x:</em>
5 * 10 = x,
x =<em> 50 centimeters of the poster </em>

Hey ! there
Answer:
- Simplest fraction form of 85% is <u>1</u><u>7</u><u>/</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Question says that we have to write the <u>simplest</u><u> </u><u>form </u><u>of </u><u>8</u><u>5</u><u>%</u><u> </u><u>as </u><u>it's </u><u>fraction</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
<u>Solution </u><u>:</u><u> </u><u>-</u>

We know that ,
- Percent ( % ) = <u>1</u><u>/</u><u>100</u>
So ,

or ,

Reducing the fraction by cancelling it by 5 :

We get :

Now , we can't reduce 17/20 .
- <u>Henceforth</u><u> </u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>/</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>the </u><u>simplest</u><u> </u><u>form </u><u>of </u><u>8</u><u>5</u><u>%</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
