Given:
The sum of four times a number and 5 is equal to fives times the number.
To find:
The number
Solution:
We can calculate the number by following a simple process-
Let us assume that the number is X.
Now as per the question,
four times of X= 4X
five times of X= 5X
The sum of 4X and 5 is equal to 5X.
4X + 5= 5X
On solving the equation, we get
5= 5X-4X
X=5
Therefore, the required number is 5.
