Question

a number divided by 5 gives 7 less than twice the number​

Answer 1

Answer:answer 35 /9

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

given x divided by 5 is 2x -7

         x/5 = 2x-7

           x =  10x - 35

           -9x = -35

        x= 35/9

therefore the required number is 35/9

Answer 2

Let the no be X

a/q,

$\frac{x}{5} = 2x - 7 \\ 10x - 35 = x \\ 9x = 35 \\ x = \frac{ 35}{9}$
