Question

Solve this equation
100(x – 3) = 1,000

Answer 1

$\sf \Large Solution!!$

100(x - 3) = 1000

100x - 300 = 1000

100x = 1000 + 300

100x = 1300

$\sf x=\dfrac{13\cancel{00}}{1\cancel{00}}$

x = 13

Verification.

100(x - 3) = 1000

100(13 - 3) = 1000

100(10) = 1000

1000 = 1000

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.

Answer 2

Answer:

100×(x-3)=1000

>100x-300=1000

>100x=1000+300

>100x=1300

>X=1300/100

>X=13

100×(13-3)=1000

>100×10=1000

LHS=RHS
