Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number

42-(2x/3)=30 [Given]

12-(2x/3)=0 [Subtract 30 from both sides]

12=(2x/3) [Add (2x/3) to both sides]

36=2x [Multiply both sides by 3]

18=x [Divide both sides by 2]

Check:

42-(2x/3)=30 [Given]

42-[(2*18)/3]?=30 [Substitution]

42-[36/3]?=30

42-12?=30

30=30

Answer: The number is 18.
