6 times a number is equal to 5 times the sum of the number and 2

TO DETERMINE

The number

EVALUATION

Let the required number = x

6 times of the number = 6x

Again 5 times the sum of the number and 2

= 5( x + 2 )

So by the given condition

6x = 5( x + 2)

⇒ 6x = 5x + 10

⇒ 6x - 5x = 10

⇒ x = 10

Hence the required number = 10
