Question

5. Yesterday at the museum, 602 people viewed the dinosaur exhibit. This

attendance was 10 less than 3 times the number of people who viewed the
wetlands exhibit. How many people viewed the wetlands exhibit
yesterday?

Answer 1

204

Explanation:

let the number of people who viewed wetland exhibit be x

so 3x -10 =602

we add 10 on both sides

3x-10+10=602+10

3x=612

divide both sides by 3

3x/3= 612/3

x=204

The number of people who viewed the wetland exhibit are 204
