Answer:

1) B/ 0.4n = 12; n = 30

2) B/ 125 – x = 58

3) B/ $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 0.4n = 12

n = 12 ÷ 0.4

n = 30

2) 125 – x = 58

– x = 58 – 125

– x = – 67 ( – & – will get cancelled)

x = 67

a) 125 + x = 58

x = 58 – 125

x = – 67 (pages won't be in negative)

c) 125 ÷ 58 = x

2.15 = x (wrong)

d) 58 – x = 125

– x = 125 – 58

– x = 67

x = 67 ÷ –1

x = – 67 ( pages won't be in negative)

3) 12x = 21

x = 21 ÷ 12

x = 1.75
