Five times a number subtracted from 50 is 15. what is the number? ( number 1.)

5 x 7 = 35

50 - 35 = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

if five times a number subtracted from  50 is 15, do the multiplication of 5 and come out with two numbers when subtracted, you can get the 15.

so I multiplied 5 and 7, and got 35. then I subtracted it from the 50 and got the 15.

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number.

5 times the number would be .

Five times a number subtracted from 50 would be .

We have been given that five times a number subtracted from 50 is 15. We can represent this information in an equation as:

Subtract 50 from both sides:

Divide both sides by

Therefore, the required number is 5.

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
