a)
5 + 15 × ( 25 - 75 : 5 + 25 : a ) = 1 150 : 5
5 + 15 × ( 25 - 15 + 25 : a ) = 230
15 × ( 10 + 25 : a ) = 230 - 5
10 + 25 : a = 225 : 15
10 + 25 : a = 15
25 : a = 15 - 10
25 : a = 5
a = 25 : 5
a = 5 → numarul aflat prin metoda mersului invers
b)
3 + 2 × { [ 72 - 12 × ( a - 3 ) ] - 9 x 4 } = 27
2 x { [ 72 - 12 × ( a - 3 ) ] - 36 } = 27 - 3 = 24
[ 72 - 12 × ( a - 3) ] - 36 = 24 : 2 = 12
72 - 12 × ( a - 3 ) = 12 + 36 = 48
12 × ( a - 3 ) = 72 - 48 = 24
a - 3 = 24 : 12
a - 3 = 2
a = 2 + 3
a = 5
