<u>1. </u>Subtract 24 from both sides
-3x = -27 - 24
Simplify -27 - 24 to -51
-3x = -51
Divide both sides by -3
x = -51/-3
Two negatives make a positive
x = 51/3
Simplify 51/3 to 17
<u>x = 17</u>
<u>2.</u> Regroup terms
n/5 - 17 = 33
Add 17 to both sides
n/5 = 33 + 17
Simplify 33 + 17 to 50
n/5 = 50
Multiply both sides by 5
n = 50 * 5
Simplify 50 * 5 to 250
<u>n = 250</u>

Answer:Let's assume x be the smaller number.
Given that, The greater number is 4 more than the smaller number.
So, greater number= x+4.
It's also given that, The sum of two numbers is 52. Which means sum of x and x+4 must be equa to 52. Hence,
x + (x + 4) = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
X/3=60
then multiply each side by 3 and x will equal 180
