\n" ); document.write( "when 100 is added with a number,the result is 50 more than the 3 times the number.Find the number.
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let x be the number.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then the condition says \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + 100 = 3x + 50.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Simplify and solve for x:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "100 - 50 = 3x - x,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "50 = 2x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"50%2F2\"$ = 25.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer. The number is 25.\r
