Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The average of two numbers is 40. If one number is 30, what is the other number?
Correct Answer: 50
  • Step 1: Understand that the average of two numbers is found by adding the two numbers together and then dividing by 2.
  • Step 2: We know the average is 40, so we can write the equation: (30 + x) / 2 = 40.
  • Step 3: To eliminate the division, multiply both sides of the equation by 2: 30 + x = 80.
  • Step 4: Now, isolate x by subtracting 30 from both sides: x = 80 - 30.
  • Step 5: Calculate the result: x = 50.
