• If a number is decreased by four and divided by six the result is eight what would be the result if two is subtracted from the number and then it is divided by five??

${\huge{\mathfrak{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}$

Let the number be x

According to given conditions,

• (x-4)÷6=8

=>x-4=8×6

=>x=48+4

Hence, the no. is 52.

• So, the result=

(no.-2)÷5

=>(52-5)÷5

=>50÷5

Hence, the answer is 10.

Answer 2

Let the number be x
x-4/6=8
x-4=8*6
x=48+4
x=52

Now,
50-2/5
50/5
10
