One third of a number is 0.5 less than 4. Find the number
Let X be the number
4-1/3x=0.5
The solution is x = 10.5
Formula calculation: 80% of a number is 20% more than 3% of 4. Find the number
Let this number be x, then we have:
0.8x-3x/4=0.2;
0.05x=0.2;
x=4;
The number is four
2 times of a number minus 2 / 5 (two fifths) to get 8 / 5 (eight fifths). What's the number? (use equation solution)
Let X be 2x - (2 / 5) = (8 / 5) x = 1, which is 1
