Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

consider the number to be x

then from the question 3x+10=46

3x=36

x=36÷3=12

Answer 2

1. $\huge\underline\mathrm{Given:}$

$\frac{x}{5} = 1$

$x = 1 \times 5$

$x = 5.$

• $\huge\mathfrak{\color{red}{\underline{\underline{Answer♡}}}}$

Let the number be x.

• Triple of the number = 3x
• Result = 46
• Result increased by 10.
• Increased number = 3x+10

━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The equation forms for the given question is :

3x+10 = 46

3x = 46–10

3x = 36

$x = \frac{36}{3}$

$x = 12.$

$\red{\boxed{\bold{\large{x=12}}}}$

Hence, the number is 12.
