Answer 2

☆ Solution ☆

Given :-

• Ahmad added 5 in the twice of a number. Then he subtracted half of the number from the result. Finally, he got the answer 8.

To Find :-

• The number.

Step-by-Step-Explaination :-

Let the number be x

According to the question,

( 5x + 2x ) - 1/2x = 8

2( 5 + 2x ) - x = 16

10 + 4x - x = 16

3x = 16 - 10

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

Hence,

The number is 2 .
