Five more than the quotient of a number and 2 is equal to 7

Question

The viariable is w for the unknown number and this is algebraic expressions

Answer 1

Greetings! Lets solve this shall we!?

We must translate this expression into a mathematical expression! Lets do it !

Five more than the quotient of a number and 2 is equal to 7 converts into

(w/2) + 5 = 7. Do we have to solve for w ? Lets solve it anyway

(w/2) - 5 -5

----------------------

(w/2) = 2..................Then we take the reciprocal of (1/2) to both sides to get

w = 2(2/1) = 4

I hope this helps!
