15 less than 2 times a number is the same as 7 more than half of the number. what is the number?

x = 14 and 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Make an equation where x is the number.

2x - 15 = 7 + 1/2x

Then, solve the equation.

multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction

4x - 30 = 14 + x

subtract x from both sides

3x - 30 = 14

add 30 to both sides

3x = 44

divide both sides by 3

x = 14 and 2/3

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.

probability for j is 1/4

while

a is 1/6
