Question

The 200 employee of the Ace Paper Company are 7 less than three times the number of workers at Uniclad Electroplating. How many people work at Uniclad?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of workers at Uniclad Electroplating be x

According to the given condition:

200 = 3x - 7

200+7= 3x

$\implies \: 3x = 207 \\ \implies \: x = \frac{207}{3} \\ \implies \: x =69$

Thus 69 people works at Uniclad.
