Translate the sentence into an equation.
Five more than the quotient of a number and 8 is 2 .
Use the variable w for the unknown number.

When translating sentences into equations you want to write it in number format from left to right.

You first start with five more than.

Which means that you are going to start with 5+

then you go to the next part of you sentence which is quotient of a number and eight,

that is represented by w/8 when you put the first two together you've got

5+(w/8).

Now the last step is 2, where is means equals,

so you have =2.

When putting them all toghether you get:

5+(w/8)=2 as your final answer.

Hope this helps ;)

This is easy the answers 55 you just need to divide

165 ÷ 3 = ?

Step 1: Look at the multiplications of three can you make a group with an answer close to one? if not look at 16 and the multiplications of three is there a number close to 16 or exact?

Step 2: In this case 5 × 3 = 15, so 15 is close to 16.

Step 3: Now you need to subtract 16 and 15, 16 - 15 = 1.

Step 4: Like there's no number that has 1 as a answer, you need to lower the 5.

Step 5: Once you lower the five it makes 15 in the in the multiplications of three is there something close to 15 or exact? Yes there is a number that can make 15, it's 5 × 3 so 15 take away 15 makes zero so your answer will be simple, 55.

So Luke's dad needs to save $55 each week.
