You can use an equation of: x - 0.25x = 30

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

x = the original 0.25x is 25% OF the original weight of the bag.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Now combine the like terms. Remember that x equals to 1 in this case, just for the sake of trying to find the ACTUAL value of x. So you would have to think of it as: 1 - 0.25 = __ __x = 30 Use the division property of equality to isolate x and solve for the original value.
