Question

when 4 is subtracted from three times a number and the resultt is divided by 3 more than the number we get 2/5 find the number​

Answer 1

Let the number be x

three times a number=3x

5 subtracted from 3 times a number=3x-5=16

3x=16+5

3x=21

x=21/3

x=7

Answer 2

The number is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

4 is subtracted from three times a number = 3x-4

We are given that when 4 is subtracted from three times a number and the result is divided by 3 more than the number we get 2/5

So,$\frac{3x-4}{3+x}=\frac{2}{5}$

$15x-20=6+2x$

13x=26

$x=\frac{26}{13}$

x=2

Hence The number is 2
