Let X = number
2X = X/4 + 14
multiply both sides by 4
8X = X + 56
subtract X from both sides
7X = 56
divide both sides by 7
X = 8
Check: 8*2 = 16. 8/4 = 2. 16 is fourteen more than 2. Checking your work ensures that you used the appropriate equation for the problem, as well as catching any errors in arithmetic.

Find a number whose double exceeds its quarter by 7?
4: whose double is 8 and quarter is 1. If the missing number is x, then: 2x = x/4 + 7 Multiply throughout by 4: 8x = x + 28 Subtract x from both sides: 7x = 28 Divide throughout by 7: x = 4
What is half of a quarter of 400?
50. First you have to find out what a quarter of 400 is before you can take half of that number. So one quarter of 400 is the same as dividing by 4, so the answer is 100. Then you'll need to take half of that number, which is 50.

How big is an atom compared to a quarter?
A quarter is huge compared to an atom. To put them in perspective let's calculate how many atoms are in a US quarter: -The current US quarter has a mass of 5.67g and is 8.33% nickel and 91.67% copper. -From the mass and percentages of each element we can find that there are 5.20g of copper and 0.472g of nickel in each quarter. -Dividing the mass of each element by its molar mass we find that there are 0.0818 moles of copper and 0.00805 moles of nickel in each quarter. -Multiplying the number of moles of each element by Avogadro's number we find that there are 4.93x1022 atoms of copper and 4.85x1021 atoms of nickel in each quarter. This means there is a total of 5.41x1022 atoms in a US quarter. Let's write that number out to get a little more perspective: 54,100,000,000,000,000,000,000 That certainly is a huge number!
