We want to write as an expression (and solve it) the given mathematical statement.
The expression that we must find and solve is:
(N/4 + 5)*3 = 27
And the solution is N = 16.
The statement is:
"A number is divided by four. the result is added to five. the result is multiplied by three to give 27"
If we analyze it by parts, we start with:
"A number is divided by four..."
We can write this as:
N/4
"A number is divided by four. the result is added to five..."
N/4 + 5
"A number is divided by four. the result is added to five. the result is multiplied by three to give 27"
(N/4 + 5)*3 = 27
Ok, now we can solve this for N.
(N/4 + 5)*3 = 27
(N/4 + 5) = 27/3 = 9
N/4 = 9 - 5 = 4
N = 4*4 = 16
So the value of the number is 16.
