Answer 1

Given

• Twice a number decreased by 8 equals 16.

To Find

• Find the number.

Solution

Let the number be x.

According to Question:

• 2x - 8 = 16
• 2x = 16 + 8
• 2x = 24
• x = 8/2
• x = 12

So, the number is 4.

Answer 2

Given

To Find

• Find the number.

Solution

Let the number be x

According to Question

• x - 2/5x = 36

• 3x / 5 = 36
• 3x = 36 × 5
• 3x = 180
• x = 180/3
• x = 60

So, the number is 60.
