Step-by-step explanation:
Given Find the number if 20 is taken away from 5 times a number 30
- Let the number be m
- So according to the question
- If 20 is taken away from the number means it will be m – 20
- Also it is given that 5 times a number so it will be 5m. This number is equal to 30
- Now we can form the equation as
- 5m – 20 = 30
- 5m = 30 + 20
- 5m = 50
- Or m = 50 / 5
- Or m = 10
- So the number is 10
