Example: Three more than half of a number is 15. >Take the number (24) and divide it in half (or by 2). 24 / 2 = 12 >Take the 12 and add 3 12 + 3 = 15
To get three more than a number, add there. If the number is n, then three more than n is n + 3.
12 is a composite number. A composite number is when more than two factors fit in the number. like 1,12,6,2,4 and 3 fit in 12 that is more than 2 factors. So its not a prime
X/(-3) = X + 12 X = -3X -36 4X = -36 X = -9
15
28 7, 4, 2
4n+3 = 15 15 - 3 = 12 4n = 12 12 / 4 = 3 (3 X 4) + 3 = 15
Is the answer to that 12? No. 3 times 4 is 12. 12 more than 4 is 16. So 3 times more than 4 is 16.
n = number. (3/7)n + 12 ========
15 more than -3 = 12
9+(x/4)=12 x/4=3 x=12
It is D because: 6+2*3 = 12
