Answer:
4.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the termites: 5 pounds
After the termites: 1/4 of a pound
Amount that the termites took: x
5 - x = 1/4
Add x to both sides of the equation
5 = 1/4 + x
Subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation
4 3/4 = x
4 3/4 = 4.75
The termites took 4.75 pounds from the log
Hope this helps :)
Okay, so I would multiply 62*7.5 to get 465.
To check the solution, make sure it follows the rules as in the word problem.
If you divide 465 by 7.5 you do get 62, so the solution is 465.
Mathematically, the equation would be
x
- = 62
7.5
I would multiply x/7.5 by 7.5/1 (to cancel it out) and 62/1 by 7.5 which is basically the same solution as above.
