Question

Linda missed a total of 6 points on a science quiz. If he missed the same number of points on each of 3
problems, which integer represents the number of points missed for each problem?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = 6 - \frac{x}{3} \\ \\ x + \frac{x}{3} = 6 \\ \\ \frac{x}{3} - 6 = x$

Answer 2

Given: Linda missed a total of 6 points on a science quiz.

He missed the same number of points on each of 3 problems,

To Find : integer representing the number of points missed for each problem

Solution:

Assume that integer representing the number of points missed for each problem  is N

Points missed on 1 problem  = N

Points missed on 3 problems  = 3N

Total  Point Missed = 6

Equate Total points missed

=> 3N = 6

Divide both sides by 3

=> 3N/3  = 6/3

=> N = 2

Hence  integer representing the number of points missed for each problem  is 2
