Question

5 subtracted from two-third of a number gives 3 form (an equation)​

Answer 1

Let the number be x

The statement is:-

5 subtracted from two-third of a number gives 3

=> 2/3x - 5 = 3

=> 2/3x = 8

=> 2x = 24

Therefore x = 12 (Answer)

Answer 2

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

           Given data:-   $\frac{2}{3x} -5=3.$

           To find:-Value of given expression=?

           Solution:-

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

• Step 1:- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.

• Step 2:- -then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Step 3:- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.

• Step 4:- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.

• Step 5:- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation. By using the transposition method. we get,

       Therefore,

        $\begin{array}{l}\frac{2}{3 x}-5=3 \\\frac{2}{3 x}=8 \\2 x=24 \\x=12.\end{array}$

Therefore we will get the value $x=12.$
