Let's break this word problem down into pieces. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, Taylor read 4 times as many pages as Aniya. \n" ); document.write( "Aniya = x \n" ); document.write( "Taylor = 4x \n" ); document.write( "[The amount Aniya has read is set to default x. Since Taylor read 4 times as many, the expression given to her is 4x.]\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Second, Taylor read 100 pages. If Taylor has the expression 4x, then we can create an equation with her expression equaling to 100. \n" ); document.write( "4x = 100\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next, we must solve for what x is equal to. \n" ); document.write( "4x = 100 \n" ); document.write( "(Divide 4 on both sides of the equation.) \n" ); document.write( " x = 25\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since we now know that x is equal to 25, we can conclude that Aniya read a total of 25 pages. Finally, we must subratract Aniya's amount from Taniya's amount to get a difference of: 75 pages \n" ); document.write( "100 - 25 = 75\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: Taylor read 75 more pages than Aniya. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
