Write an equation using n and t.
The total bill (t) was twenty times the number of people (n).
t=20n
t total bill
was equals
20t 20 times number of people
some purists will insist on writing it
20n = t
either way is correct
To write the equation, you can start by identifying the given information. In this case, the total bill is twenty times the number of people. Let's represent the total bill by the variable t and the number of people by the variable n.
Next, we can write an equation to represent the relationship between the total bill (t) and the number of people (n):
t = 20n
In this equation, the "20n" represents the total bill being twenty times the number of people.
Alternatively, some people may prefer to write the equation as:
20n = t
This equation still represents the same relationship between the total bill and the number of people, just with the terms rearranged.
Both equations are correct and valid representations of the given information.
