she had thought?
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the require no. be x

A.T.Q.

\begin{lgathered}\frac{ x + 19}{5} = 8 \\ = > x + 19 = 8 \times 5 \\ = > x + 19 = 40 \\ = > x = 40 - 19 \\ = > x = 21\end{lgathered}

5

x+19

=8

=>x+19=8×5

=>x+19=40

=>x=40−19

=>x=21

let the no. be x

Hence,when she adds 19,

x+19

further the sum is divided by 5,

x/5 + 19/5 =8
