Question

What number must be subtracted from 35 so that the difference is 6 times the number subtracted?​

Answer 1

Answer:

35-X = 6x

∴ 7X = 35

   X = 35/7 = 5

Let the number subtracted be "x"

• According to the question,

⇒ 7x = 35

⇒x = 35/7 = 5

Therefore, the number to be subtracted is "5"
