Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 25 percent means one fourth. To calculate 25 percent of a number, simply divide it by 4. For example, 25 percent of 12 is 12 divided by 4, or 3. 10 percent means one tenth.

2 less then 3 times a number is 9

Masteriza [31]

$\huge\boxed{\text{As an expression:}\ 3x-2=9}$

$\huge\boxed{\text{Solved for x:}\ x=\frac{11}{3}}$

Let's start with " $3$ times a number". We will use $x$ to represent the number. $3x$

" $2$ less than" is next. $-2$

Finally, "is $9$ ". $=9$

Put it all together to get an expression. $\boxed{3x-2=9}$

Now, let's solve for the unknown number.

Add $2$ on both sides of the equation. $3x=11$

Divide both sides of the equation by $3$ to isolate $x$ . $x=\boxed{\frac{11}{3}}$
