The answer depends on what the percentage problem is. The equations will be different depending on whether you want to find:
4 x .25 = 1
You do not need to write anything to calculate things mentally.
write and solve an equation to find the value of x. 8x plus 35 and then 14x-7
you have to write down the equation first so people can answer it
how can you specify what the variable stand for, write and equation, and solve this problem. a sewing project requires material costing $44 plus some tassels. if the material and tassels are to be purchased with four $20 bills, how many tassels can be purchased if they cost $2.40 each?
4 x .25 = 1
you shall add
You do not need to write anything to calculate things mentally.
This problem means to write this equation: 14 = 75/100 * n And we can get n by itself to solve the problem: 14 * 100 /75 = n 1400 / 75 = n 18 2/3 = n
I would gingerly perform the step, write the solution,and go on to the next problem.
Without an equality sign the given expression can't be considered to be an equation
write and solve an equation to find the value of x. 8x plus 35 and then 14x-7
If there are two variables, you'll usually need two equations in the two variables, to be able to find a specific solution. How you write the equation depends on the specific problem. In general, it requires some practice, to be able to convert a word problem into mathematical equations.
You can draw a flowchart of solving a particular problem and then write a program to solve that problem.
Use a variable to represent the unknown. 'Translate' the words to math symbols and write an equation to solve. Solve the equation. Check.
whatever the equation is write the equation in words then solve each step in a sentence.
The answer is....... 1. read the problem 2. determine the unknowns and represent them 3. write an equation 4. solve the equation 5. answer the question
