Alondra studies 7 hours this week for end-of-year exams. He spends 1 hour on English and an equal number of hours each on math, science and history.

Write an equation and find the solution

Total hours = english hours + ( math + science + history ) hours

Total hours = english hours + other subjects hours

7 hours = 1 hours + 3( x ) hours solve for x

(7 - 1) hours = (1 - 1) hours + 3x hours

6 hours / 3 = 3x / 3 hours

2 hours = x hours
