Answer 2

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

22 subtracted from thrice a number = 68

To Find :-

What is the number ?

Solution :-

Let, the required number be 'x'

According to question :-

$3\times x - 22 = 68$

$3x - 22 = 68$

Transposing 22 to R.H.S  :-

$3x = 68 + 22$

3x = 90

$x = \dfrac{90}{3}$

x = 30

Hence, the required number(x) = 30.

Verification :-

3x - 22 = 68

3(30) - 22 = 68

90 - 22 = 68

68 = 68

Hence, verified
