Question

2 third of number z subtracted from 3 gives 5​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of z will be 2/3 × z = 2z/3. ↦ 3 subtracted from 2z/3 = 5. ↦ 2z/3 - 3 = 5. ↦ (2z - 9)/3 = 5.

Hope its help..

Answer 2

$3 - \frac{2}{3 } \times z = 5 \\ \frac{9 - 2z}{3} = 5 \\ 9 - 2z = 15 \\ - 2z = 15 - 9 \\ - 2z = 6 \\ z = \frac{6}{ - 2} \\ z = - 3$
