Question

@ Write each of the following as an equation
Five ten than a number x is 12
​

Answer 1

Answer;

Five less than x is x-5

So

x - 5 = 12

Add 5 to both sides

X = 17

And,

Ten less than x is x-10

so

x-10=12

add 10 to both side or/ -10 will go right hand side from left hand,I.e. x=22

x=22.

Hence, x= 17 and 22.
