Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
If seven times a number results in 35, then six times a number would be five less.
3x-5
If i understand you correctly, 8 times itself is 8 * 8 = 64and 64 - 63 = 1
Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
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...
one.
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
3-5x
5x - 2
5
The difference is ten times the number.
If seven times a number results in 35, then six times a number would be five less.
3x-5
5A-2
3x= 5x-10 2x=10 x=5
