Writing down the equation with x as the number you are trying to find, we get 3x = 4x-1. Simplifying the equation, we find that x=1. So, the answer is 1.
4n-5 (Which is four times a number minus 5)
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).
The real answer is n-7
4
2x = <4
6x + 10 > x - 5
10n - 24 = 8n + 64 n = 44
the quotient of twice a number and six is.... 2x/6 four less than three times the same number is .... 3x-4 So the equation would be 2x/6=3x-4

if n is your number, then 3n - 5 = 16, ie 3n = 21 ie n = 7.
3x + 5 = 33 - 4 (which is true when x = 8)
3a-6x2
Three times a number is 10 less five times the number can be put in the form of an equation that looks like this: 3x = 5x-10. Now just solve for x...
7n - 6
4n - 1
