solve this equation
the quantity fifty four plus x plus eighty nine divided by three equals 76
To solve the equation, we can start by writing it as an equation and then solve for x step by step.
54 + x + 89/3 = 76
First, let's simplify the equation by calculating 89 divided by 3.
54 + x + 29.67 = 76
Next, let's combine like terms on the left side of the equation.
x + 83.67 = 76
To isolate x, we need to subtract 83.67 from both sides of the equation.
x = 76 - 83.67
Calculating the right side of the equation:
x = -7.67
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -7.67.
it was incorrect
Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly.
54 + x + 89/3 = 76
First, simplify 89/3:
54 + x + 29.67 = 76
Combine like terms:
x + 83.67 = 76
Next, isolate x by moving 83.67 to the other side of the equation:
x = 76 - 83.67
Calculating the right side of the equation:
x = -7.67
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -7.67.
you're still wrong. Simplify inside of the fraction first, then undo normally
Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the equation correctly this time.
The equation is: 54 + x + 89/3 = 76
To simplify the equation, first divide 89 by 3:
54 + x + 29.67 = 76
Next, combine like terms:
54 + x + 29.67 = 76
Finally, subtract 54 and 29.67 from both sides of the equation:
x + 29.67 = 76 - 54
x + 29.67 = 22
Subtract 29.67 from both sides:
x = 22 - 29.67
x = -7.67
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -7.67.
you're still incorrect, why so dumb xd
Apologies for the mistakes in my previous responses. Let's solve the equation correctly this time:
To solve the equation: (54 + x + 89) / 3 = 76
First, simplify within the parentheses:
(143 + x) / 3 = 76
Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction:
143 + x = 76 * 3
143 + x = 228
Now, isolate x by subtracting 143 from both sides:
x = 228 - 143
x = 85
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 85.
