Question

You have an stick that is 25x long. 23 is 7/25th of the length. What is the length?

Answer 1

Answer:

• 82 1/7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 25x and 7/25th of the length is 23:

• 7/25*25x = 23
• 7x = 23
• x = 23/7

The length is:

• 25*23/7 = 575/7 = 82 1/7 units

Answer 2

• Length=25x

ATQ

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{7}{25}\:of\:25x=23$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{7}{25}\times 25x=23$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 7x=23$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{23}{7}$

Now

Length=

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 25x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{25(23)}{7}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{575}{7}$
