Because of the way the question is written, we don't know for sure what is being asked. We do know that it is one of two things, and here they are with their solutions. The unidentified number is N and the equations could be either 2N - 5 = 8(N + 1) 2N - 5 = 8N + 8 -13 = 6N - 6/13 = N or 2N - 5 = 8N + 1 -6 = 6N -1 = N One of these is two expressions is the correct one for your problem, but when we interpret the "English" in which the question is asked and the problem is posed, eitherexpression might be applied.

There is nothing in the description you have given which tells us the amount of that unspecified number, therefore, the answer could be anything. If you want to solve for an unknown number you need an equation. You might have said four times a number added to -9 subtracted from triple the sum of nine times the number and eight is equal to zero. Then we can solve the equation.
