Find the number N , such that when 1 ÷3 of it's added to 8 , the results is the same as when 1÷2 of it is subtracted from 18

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + N/3 = 18 - N/2

N/3 + N/2 = 18 - 8

2N/6 + 3N/6 = 10

5N/6 = 10

N = 10(6/5)

N = 12

N=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation involving N

(1/3)N+8=18-(1/2)N

We want to clear the denominator to start with by multiplying everything on both side by 6

2N+48=108-3N

Move all the N's to one side and the number to the opposite

5N=60

Divide by 5

N=12

Check:

(1/3)12+8=18-(1/2)12

4+8=18-6

12=12

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
