Question

An integer divided by 7 gives a result-3.What is that integer

Answer 1

Let's call the integer we're looking for "x".

From the problem, we know that:

x ÷ 7 = -3

To solve for "x", we can multiply both sides of the equation by 7:

x = -3 x 7

x = -21

Therefore, the integer we're looking for is -21.

Answer 2

- 21

Explanation:

let the integer be n , then

`(n)/(7)` = - 3 ( multiply both sides by 7 to clear the fraction )

n = 7 × - 3 = - 21

that is the integer is - 21
