Question

when 1 is subtracted from 5 time in number and the result is divided by 3 more than the twice the number we get 4/5 find the number

Answer 1

Heya !!




Let number be X.





Subtracting 1 from 5 times of X.

=> ( 5X - 1 ).





★ Three more than twice of X= ( 2X + 3 )




According to the question,





5X - 1 / 2X + 3 = 4/5







5 ( 5X - 1 ) = 4 ( 2X + 3 )





25X - 5 = 8X + 12





25X - 8X = 17



X = 1



Hence,


Number = X = 1
