Answer 2

Given:

one-fourth of a number is $2$ more than $5$ in the equation​.

To Find:

To find the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Here we need to find the equation in numerical terms.
• We will simply assume a variable.

Solution:

Let the number $= x$

Hence, we will obtain an equation using the information

One-fourth of a number

$= \frac{1}{4} *x\\\\= \frac{x}{4}$

Now, this number is two more than five:

$\frac{x}{4} = 2 +5\\\\\frac{x}{4} = 7 \\\\ x = 28$

hence, the equation is $x = 28$
