Ivan finished 4/5 of his math homework problems and all 3 questions for his science homework before dinner . If he finished a total of 43 problems before dinner , what is the total number of math homework problems he was assigned?

The answer would be 50. I took the test review and got it right.

there is no answer 53

Yes, the answer is 50.

43 - 3=40
40 divided by 4 = 10
10 x 5= 50
So the answer is 50.

To find the total number of math homework problems Ivan was assigned, we need to solve the following equation:

4/5 * x + 3 = 43

Where x represents the total number of math homework problems Ivan was assigned.

To solve this equation, we can start by isolating the term with x:

4/5 * x = 43 - 3

4/5 * x = 40

To get rid of the fraction, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 4/5, which is 5/4:

(4/5 * x) * (5/4) = 40 * (5/4)

x = 50

Therefore, the total number of math homework problems Ivan was assigned is 50.

Which expression means 9.7 split into a certain number of equal parts?

53

If there are x math problems, then we know that

(4/5) x + 3 = 53
