Lashonda needs to memorize words on a vocabulary list for Russian class. She has memorized 22 of the words, which is one-half of the list. How many wordsare on the list?

Respuesta :

ANSWER

44 words

EXPLANATION

Let 'x' be the number of words in the list. We know that half the list is 22 words:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x=22[/tex]

To find x we just have to multiply both sides of the equation by 2:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}\cdot2x=22\cdot2 \\ x=44 \end{gathered}[/tex]

There are 44 words on the list.
