Question

If you take Coleman's test grade and divide by 2 and add 27, you get 67. Write and solve an equation to find Coleman's test grade.

A) 20
B) 47
C) 80
D) 188

Answer 1

it's c because. 80 divided. by 2 equals 40 then add 27 that equals 67

Answer 2

Answer: 80

Explanation:

Let Coleman's test grade be 'x'.

Then according to the given situation, the required equation will be

`(x)/(2)+27=67`

To solve the equation first subtract 27 from both sides, we get

`\Rightarrow(x)/(2)=67-27\\\Rightarrow(x)/(2)=40`

Now, multiply 2 on the both sides, we get

`x=80`

Hence, Coleman's test grade=80
