Answer 2

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:Let the unknown number be X.

Equation = 1/3 of X +5 =8 ( of means multiplcation)

                =1/3 x(multiply) X +5 =8

                =1x/3 +5 =8

               (Interchange of signs when number goes from left to right or

                   from right to left)

                =1X/3 = 8-5(because of interchange property+5 gets                            converted into -5)

                 =1X/3=3

                 =1X=3x3(Because of interchange property, divided 3 gets converted into x3)

                 1X=9

                  X=9/1(Any no. divided by 1 , the answer is the no. itself)

                  X=9
