Question

if 4 is added to five times a number, the result is 12 more than three times the number.find the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number be x

4 is added to 5 times a number = 5x+4

the result is 12 more than 3 times the number = 3x+12

So,our equation becomes- 5x+4=3x+12

5x-3x=12-4

2x=8

x=8/2

x=4

so value of x=4

Therefore the number is 4.
