Well, honey, if you take 10 away from 5, you're left with -5. Simple math, darling. Just remember, numbers can be tricky little devils sometimes.
10-k=5
The ones digit is 5 less than 10 (10-5=5) The tens digit is 2 more than the ones digit (5+2=7) The entire number is less than 200. It could be either "75" or "175", but is probably "175" or they would have said that the entire number was less than 100.
No solution.If it's less than 5, it can't be as much as 10, so it certainly can't be greater than 10.If it's greater than 10, it can't be as little as 5, so it certainly can't be less than 5.
numbe is 5
15-5 = 10
A number can't be both less than 5 and greater than 10.
"5 less than a number" can be represented as x - 5, where x is the unknown number. This expression indicates that you are subtracting 5 from the number. For example, if the number is 10, then 5 less than that number would be 10 - 5 = 5.
It is: 15-5 = 10
10-k=5

5/p - 10.

10 is such a number.

-5 is greater than -10 For real numbers, the definition of "less than" can be expressed as "is to the left on the number line". Because -10 is to the left of -5, -10 is considered to be less than -5. It helps to think of temperature: Temperature measures heat, so if it's -10 degrees outside, that's colder than -5; I.e. there's less heat.
