Given:

Five times a number reduced exceeded by 15 equal to 20.

To find:

Find the number​

Solution:

From given, we have,

Five times a number reduced exceeded by 15 equal to 20.

Let the number be 'x'

Let us solve the problem step by step.

Firstly, they have given that, 5 times a number.

So, we get, ⇒ 5x

Secondly, this 5x reduces  exceeded by 15

So, we get, ⇒ 5x - 15

Finally, this 5x - 15 equals to 20.

So, we get, ⇒ 5x - 15 = 20

Upon further solving this equation, we get,

5x - 15 = 20

5x = 20 + 15

5x = 35

x = 35/7

x = 7

Therefore, the number​ is 7.
