let age = x 300 - 3x = 27 solve for x :) lmk if you want me to keep going

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am a little confused can you tell me how to do again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the logic or for solving? for logic: i converted the sentence into a mathematical equation for solving. add 3x to both sides: 300 = 27 + 3x subtract 27 from both sides 273 = 3x divide both sides by 3 x = 91
