​

Answer 1

Answer:

11.91

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question the interpretation says

199 ÷ ? = 16 remainder 7

199 ÷? = 16 .7

also written as

199/? = 16.7 assuming ? to be an unknown X

using crossmultiplication

you get 16 .7 X = 199

divide through by the coefficient of x which is

16 .7 x/ 16.7 = 199 / 16.7

you have x = 11. 91

as simple as that
