Question

Translate the following into an algebraic expression:
The number that is 75% of one less than a number n.

Answer 1

Answer:

X = 0.75 ( 1- n )

Step-by-step explanation:

let  X = the number one less than n gives (1-n)

75% of (1-n) = 0.75*(1-n) = 0.75(1-n)

In conclusion: X = 0.75 ( 1- n )
