Translate the following
Half a number decrease by twelve


Sagot :

Hi!

So, to "half" a number, you multiply it by 1/2 or 0.5

"A number" is a number which we don't know the value of, so we could use a variable. Any letter you want is fine, but let's use x

"Decrease by 12" This simply means to subtract 12, so - 12

So, now we have:

1/2x - 12
