Question

two third of a number z subtracted with 3 gives 5​

Answer 1

Amswer:-

The number z is equal to 12.

Explanation:-

Given:-

• A number z.
• Two third (i.e. 2/3) of z when subtracted with 3 the result would be 5.

To Find:-

• The value of z i.e the number.

Now,

↦ 2/3 of z will be 2/3 × z = 2z/3.

So According To The Question:-

↦ 3 subtracted from 2z/3 = 5.

↦ 2z/3 - 3 = 5.

↦ (2z - 9)/3 = 5. (Taking LCM).

↦ 2z - 9 = 3 × 5.

↦ 2z - 9 = 15.

↦ 2z = 9 + 15.

↦ 2z = 24.

↦ z = 24/2.

↦ z = 12.

Therefore The Number Is 'z' Which Is Equal To 12.

Answer 2

Hey @nguridope89, Here is your answer⏬.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

$=\frac{2}{3}x- 3 = 5\\\\=\frac{2}{3}x=5+3\\\\=\frac{2}{3}x=8\\\\=2x=8\times3\\\\=2x=24\\\\=x=\frac{24}{2} \\\\=x=12$

∴x = 12
