A number s is subtracted from seven what is the result is divided by three the quotient is 2 what is the number

Respuesta :

the answer is 1

work back wards.... 2×3=6.... how do you get from 6 to 7? by adding one

[tex]\frac{s-7}{3}[/tex] = 2

[s is subtracted from 7, the result of s - 7 is divided by 3, s - 7 divided by 3 equals 2]


Multiply 3 on both sides

[tex]\frac{s-7}{3}(3) = 2(3)[/tex]

s - 7 = 6

Add 7 on both sides

s - 7 + 7 = 6 + 7

s = 13


[13 - 7 = 6 ----->  6 ÷ 3 = 2]
