Great! Here is a drawing. Basically you want to do this. |dw:1358373563511:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so which number is your original one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually that is not your original one. sorry that was a trick question . you ARE looking for the original number. 6 is the "change" in this case. sorry for the confusion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do you do with 6 now? you have to plug it into the left side of the equation. your original number will be expressed using "X"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats ok! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 over 1
