a number plus half the number is 33 find the number

x + 0.5x = 33

1.5x = 33
x = 33/1.5
x = ?

could it be 22

Right! :-)

what are the steps to solve 317+x=3 over 11

and 92+84+93+86+x=90 over
5

To solve this problem, let's break it down step by step.

Let's assume the unknown number is x.

According to the information given, adding half of the number to the number gives us 33. In equation form, this can be written as:

x + (1/2)x = 33

To solve for x, we need to combine like terms by adding the x and (1/2)x:

(3/2)x = 33

Next, we want to isolate x on one side of the equation. To do that, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2/3:

(2/3)(3/2)x = (2/3)33

This simplifies to:

x = 22

Therefore, the number is 22.
