Twenty-one is the quotient of a number y and 4. Answer: ?
Thrice the difference of number b and one is the product of a number c and then. Answer: ?

Answer 1

1. b-7= 10

2. T-(8)=12 or T X 8 =12

3. 2 (X+5)

4. 21= 4/y

5. 3 (b-1)= C (10)

Answer 2

Answer:The product of a number t and eight is twelve: t * 8 = 12

Twice the sum of a number m and five is the difference of nine and n: 2(m + 5) = 9 - n

Twenty-one is the quotient of a number y and 4: y / 4 = 21
