Question

Marcela was assigned some math problems for
homework. She answered half of them in study hall.
After school she completed seven more. If she still
has 11 problems to do, how many problems were
assigned?

Answer 1

Answer:

36 problems

Step-by-step explanation:

so let's say x = how many problems Marcela was assigned

she completed half of them so the amount of problems left is x/2

She then completed 7 more so now we can subtract 7. We then set this to 11 to solve for x

x/2 - 7 = 11

x/2 = 18

x = 36
