Question

X RETURN TO MARS The main fuel tank has been lost, it contained 220 kg of fuel. The spaceship was loaded with a total of 308 kg of fuel How much fuel do you have for each of your 4 turbines? Write the equation: = X +

Answer 1

If the spaceship was loaded with 308kg of fuel and it lost 220kg, it would have

`308-220=88`

Dividided by the 4 turbines, we'll get

`(88)/(4)=22`

22kg for each turbine.

Thereby, the expression for the fuel left for each turbine is:

`(308-220)/4=22`
