Heya folk !!

Here's the answer you are looking for

Let the number be x

The question says if 63 is subtracted from 5 times x it gives x/2

So,

5x - 63 =  \frac{x}{2}  \\ (5x - 63)2 = x \\ 10x - 63 \times 2 = x \\ 10x - x = 63 \times 2 \\ 9x = 63 \times 2 \\  \\ x =  \frac{63 \times 2}{9}  \\  \\ x = 7 \times 2 = 14


Therefore, the number is 14.
