The question can be represented as the equation, 2n + 5 = 4n + 3 where n is the unknown number.
2n + 5 = 4n + 3 : subtract 2n from both sides
5 = 2n + 3 : subtract 3 from both sides
2 = 2n : divide both sides by 2
1 = n
The unknown number has been identified as 1.
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...
3x= 5x-10 2x=10 x=5
If the number is 'z', then five less than twice the number is ( 2z - 5 ).
ten more than five times a number
five times 25 8times 64
Thrice A number divided by five is three
Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4

Let's name the first number "X" and the other number "Y" thus: 2X+5Y is the same thing as twice a number more than five times another
3*(n - 5) = 2*n + 11
3(n+5) three times n plus five n represents the unknown number
There are two consecutive odd numbers such that five times the smaller plus twice the greater is 25. What is the smaller number?
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...
3x+5x
