Questionable Stories
This is how you turn a story into an equation. Read the story below:
This story can actually be turned into an equation, like this:
So we can say that Noselie travels 15 miles on day 1. Of course he also travels 15 miles on day 2.
I hope you understand this explanation.
It is 35 kilometres from Crow Beak to Black Hampstead. Noselie Picket takes
three days to travel from CB to BH. On day 1 he travels x kilometres.
On day 2 he travels x kilometres again. On day three, he travels five
miles.
How far does he travel on day 1?
This story can actually be turned into an equation, like this:
2x + 5 = 35
2x = 35 - 5
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
So we can say that Noselie travels 15 miles on day 1. Of course he also travels 15 miles on day 2.
I hope you understand this explanation.
