Question

When five is added to three more than a certain number the result is 19,
What is the number​

Answer 1

In context to questions asked,

We have to determine the value of the number.

As per questions asked,

We have

When five is added to three more than a certain number the result is 19,

So, let the number be x

So, three more than the number will be (x+3)

When five is added to three more than the certain number then number will become (x+3+5) = (x+8)

So, from above,

We can write the expression as,

$x + 8 = 19 \\ = > x = 19 - 8 \\ = >x = 11$

Hence, value of the number will be 11.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let a number be x

the number = 3+5+x=19

x=19-3-5

x= 11
