Answer» Answer: answer is 4 Step-by-step explanation: Lets assume the number to be x. First, lets break the question step-by-step for easy understanding. Step 1: 5/2 is SUBTRACTED from x. Step 2: The answer in Step 1 is multiplied by 8. Step 3: The answer derived in Step 2 is 3 times of x. Hence, the EQUATION could be formed as follows: (x-5/2)*8=3x (2x-5)*4=3x 8x-20=3x 8x-3x=20 5x=20 x=20/5 x=4 Therefore, the number is 4. Please mark me as brainliast answer. HOPE it Helps.! |
