write the equation for the statement - 5 is added to one-third of a number then it gives 9
Answers
Answer:
(i) The sum of numbers x and 4 is 9. (ii) 2 subtracted from y is 8.
(iii) Ten times a is 70. (iv) The number b divided by 5 gives 6.
(v) Three-fourth of t is 15. (vi) Seven times m plus 7 gets you 77.
(vii) One-fourth of a number x minus 4 gives 4.
(viii) If you take away 6 from 6 times y, you get 60.
(ix) If you add 3 to one-third of z, you get 30.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a fairly easy math problem, but let us try doing it methodically.
When one third of a number is added to 5, we get 8.
Let this number be X.
.
If we form an equation as per the data in the question.
1/3(X) +5 = 8.
1/3(X) is same as X/3.
.
So, rewrite the equation as,
X/3 +5 =8.
If we subtract 5 from both sides of the equation, we get
X/3 =3.
( Note : Whatever operation you perform on one side of a mathemetical equation, must be performed on the other side as well).
