___________

Given:

When a number is subtracted from five times of the same number, the result is 40

So , here we have to make an equation

Let the number be x

and if it gets subtracted from five times of the same number

so it will be 5x

and result = 40

so , the equation we get is

x - 5x = 40

now let's solve this equation !

x - 5x = 40

4x = 40

$x\:=\:\frac{40}{4}$

x = 10
