Question

Five times a number less six is the same as three times the number plus eight is?

Answer 1

Here the equation is :-

$= > 5x - 6 = 3x + 8$

Now solving this equation :-

$= > 5x - 6 = 3x + 8$

$= > 5x - 3x = 8 - 6 \\ \\ = > 2x = 2 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{2}{2} \\ \\ = > x = 1$

The value of x is 1
