Answer 1

Let the number be 'x'.

The number tripled = 3x.

The result is 50, when on triplling the number is increased by 5.

According to given question,

$3x = 50 - 5 \\ = > 3x = 45 \\ = > x = \frac{45}{3} \\ x = > 15$

Verify:

3x+5=50

3(15)+5=50

45+5=50

50=50

it is verified...

Hence, the number is 15.
