You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This can be quickly solved using an equation with a variable . You can name this variable anything...x , y or whatever alphabet you like. I am going to use x for my solution below.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2/3*x= 30 (this equation represents the first sentence \"if 2/3 of a number is 30\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, x would represent the part that refers to the 'number'
\n" ); document.write( "'Of' would mean multiply by.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x= 30 divided by 2/3
\n" ); document.write( "x= 30*3/2
\n" ); document.write( "x= 45\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The next part asks , \"what is 1/3 of twice the number?\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We now know the number is 45. Twice the number would be 90.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 1/3 of twice the number would be 1/3*90 = 30.
\n" ); document.write( "
