Question

Three times a number is increased by 5 gives 20 find the number

Answer 1

2500 is the answer.......

Answer 2

Let the number be x

Three times a number = 3 × x = 3x

Three times a number increased by 5 = 3x + 5

Their result is 20


According to the question,

3x + 5 = 20

➾ 3x = 20 - 5

➾ 3x = 15

➾ x = $\dfrac{15}{3}$

➾ x = 5



∴ The number is $\blue{\boxed{\blue{\boxed{\green{\sf{5}}}}}}$
