Question

if the sum of 2\3 and four time a number is equal to 5/6 subtracted from five times the number. find the answer

Answer 1

We conclude that the solution to the linear equation is x = 1/24.

How to find the number?

Let's define x as the number.

Now we want to write:

"the sum of 2/3 and for times a number...."

That can be written with the equation:

2/3 + 4*x

And we also know that:

"the sum of 2/3 and for times a number is equal to 5/6"

Then we can complete the linear equation:

2/3 + 4*x = 5/6

Now we need to solve it for x:

2/3 + 4x = 5/6

4x = 5/6 - 2/3

4x = 5/6 - 4/6

4x = 1/6

x = (1/4)*(1/6) = 1/24

x = 1/24

We conclude that the solution to the linear equation is x = 1/24.
