I must change your description to read " ... 3 times as much as ... ".
Then the equation is 0.33 N = 3 x (0.17 N) . The equation has no solution. That means that no number
can make the equation a true statement.

Let's represent the number as (x). The phrase "Eight less than five times a number" can be translated to (5x - 8), and "is seven more than the number" can be translated to (x + 7). Therefore, the algebraic equation representing the given phrase is (5x - 8 = x + 7).
9x + 60 = 375 9x = 315 x = 35
4x+x+18 = 14
Oh, dude, this is like some math riddle from a bad dream. So, if we break it down, it's saying 6 more than a number is equal to 2 times the sum of half the number plus three. So, the number is 9. Math can be fun... sometimes.
Multiply the number the number by .01 and that is the percent.
Represent the number by n. The equation is 5n - 1 = 3n +5, and the solution is n = 3.

The number that can replace a variable in an equation to make it a true equation is called the solution or root of the equation. This number satisfies the equation when substituted for the variable. In algebra, finding the solution involves solving for the variable by performing various operations to isolate it on one side of the equation. The solution is the value that balances both sides of the equation, making it true.

9x + 60 = 375 9x = 315 x = 35
It would look like: 5x = 3x+6 and the value of x works our as 3
IN equation form, when the number is x: 3x = 6 + 4x 3x - 4x = 6 -x = 6
10n - 24 = 8n + 64 n = 44
