A website received 9,347 visits during the first month of its launch. The third month witnessed three times the number of visits than the second month. If the website received 13,455 visits over the three month period, how many visits did it witness during the second month?

Answer:

1027 visits

Explanation:

First write an equation to represent the situation.

x=number of visits in the second month

9347+x+3x=13455

Then solve for x

9347+4x=13455

9347+4x-9347=13455-9347

4x=4108

4x/4=4108/4

x=1027

Therefore there were 1027 visits in the second month
