Question

Alex was thinking of a number. Alex halves the number and gets an answer of 25.3. Form an equation with
x
from the information.

Answer 1

Answer:

the required number = k = 50.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex was thinking of a number.

Alex halves the number

and gets an answer of 25.3.

let the number= k

accordingly sum,

k/2 = 25.3

k = 25.3× 2

k= 50.6

so, the required number = k = 50.6

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 2y. ( y is 25.3 here)

Step-by-step explanation:

•Take the number that was halved as 'x'

and 25.3 as 'y'.

•Since x was halved, x would be:

x/2

ie. , x/2 = y (25.3)

x = y×2

x = 2y

[Please note that you can write 25.3 as y or 25.3 in the equation]

Hope my answer helped.
