What is the number, if the sum of twice a number and half the number is 10?

Let x be the unknown number.

2x + x/2 = 10 Given

2(2x) + 2(x/2) = 2(10) Multiply both side by 2

4x + x = 20 Multiplication

5x = 20 Combine like terms

(5x)/5 = (20)/5 Divide both sides by 5

x = 4

Check:

2x + x/2 = 10 Given

2(4) +(4)/2 = 10 ? Substitute 4 for x

8 + 2 = 10 ? Multiplication and Division

10 = 10 Addition

Answer: The number is 4 if the sum of twice the number and half the number is 10.
