Answer 2

If the successor of a+3 is 5, then a is equal to 1.

Step-by-step Explanation

Given: The successor of a+3 is 5

To be found: To find the value of a.

Solution:

The successor of a number is the term succeeding right after that number, that is, if x is a number, then the successor of x is x+1.

Here, it is given that 5 is the successor of a+3

$\implies (a+3) +1=5\\\implies a + 4=5$

Calculating the value of a, we get

$a=5-4\\\implies a=1$

Therefore, if 5 is the successor of a+3, then a is equal to 1.
