Question

The English Alphabet has 20 letters more than one-fourth the number of letters in the Greek Alphabet. The English Alphabet has 26 letters. Which of the following equations would you use to find the number of letters, g, in the Greek Alphabet? (5 points)

The sum of g and 20 all over 4 equals 26

4g − 20 = 26

1 over 4 g + 20 = 26

4g − 26 = 20

Answer 1

"The English Alphabet has 20 letters more than one-fourth the number of letters in the Greek Alphabet."

"20 letters more = add 20"
"1/4 the number of letters in the greek alphabet" so multiply g by 1/4, and add that to the previous expression

set the whole thing equal to 26 (the number of letters in the english alphabet)
see what you can get from that.
