Working backwards: 40 divided by -5 gives you -8. Set up an equation as x+2=-8 & solve for x. x=-10.
Now checking: -10+2=-8
-8 x -5 = 40

If: -3*(x+8) = -21 Then: x = -1
A number multiplied by another number to find the product involves taking the first number (the multiplicand) and multiplying it by the second number (the multiplier). The result of this operation is called the product. For example, if you multiply 3 by 4, the product is 12.

The number is 20.
When you add a number to another number the result is their sum
If: -3*(x+8) = -21 Then: x = -1
Suppose the number is x, then x/4 + 3 = 24 so x/4 = 21 so x = 84
