Question

one number got by adding to to
4 times a number is less than
5 times that number, what is
the number​

Answer 1

the number is 5

Explanation:

If I understand the wording of the problem correctly, you mean that four times a number is five less than five times the number.

So, if we consider the number as #x#, the equation will be:

#4x=5x-5#

Subtract #5x# from both sides.

#-x=-5#

Change the signs equally on both sides.

#x=5#

Answer 2

Answer:

.5x-4x = xAnswer is 1

5x1-4x1=1

5-4=1
