What number is 5% of 220?

Since we don't know what number it is, we can use X.

The word "of" means multiply, so we can rewrite the problem.

It is easier (for me anyway) to find 10% then work around that.
Following that path would mean that, by making a table:

100% = 220
10% = 22
5% (Which is half the 10) = 11

An equation is shown below: 3(2x − 7) = 9

Katen [24]

Answer:

1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x-7)=9

dustribute: (3)(2)+(3)(-7x)=9

6+-21x=9

subtract 6 from both sides: -21x=3

Divide both sides by -21: x=-1/7

so your 1 solution is x = - 1/7

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Tom will need $\dfrac{5}{4}$ gallons of fruit drink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint- This question can be solved by unitary method.

Tom has a recipe for punch that calls for $\dfrac{1}{2}$ gallon of fruit drink.

i.e for 1 batch of the punch Tom needs $\dfrac{1}{2}$ gallon of fruit drink.

For $\dfrac{5}{2}$ batch of the punch Tom needs $\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{5}{2}=\dfrac{5}{4}$ gallons of fruit drink.

Therefore, Tom will need $\dfrac{5}{4}$ gallons of fruit drink.
