(x/3)-2
SRY THE Q IS HOW CAN YOU WRITE AND SOLVE: Twenty four is three less than one-third of a number.?
42-15=27
Let's represent the unknown number as "x." The equation for "five less than a number is 15" can be written as x - 5 = 15. To solve for x, we add 5 to both sides of the equation, resulting in x = 20. Therefore, the number in question is 20.

Represent the number by n. The equation is 5n - 1 = 3n +5, and the solution is n = 3.
42-15=27
Let's represent the unknown number as "x." The equation for "five less than a number is 15" can be written as x - 5 = 15. To solve for x, we add 5 to both sides of the equation, resulting in x = 20. Therefore, the number in question is 20.

If the number is 'z', then five less than twice the number is ( 2z - 5 ).
One-third of ANY number is less than half of that number - no matter what number you pick.
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).
10n - 24 = 8n + 64 n = 44
That problem can be set up in the following equation: 2x-8=40 where 'x' represents the "number".First, add 8 to both sides to make get the x term alone. Then, divide by 2 to solve for x.The answer ends up to be 24.
