Answer:

You are 25

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is a word problem that requires algebra notation, actually, we are meant to convert this word problem to mathematical expression then solve.

We proceed in a stepwise manner

let say what I have is x

1. Subtract 5 from me

  (x-5)

2. Then add 2

    (x-5)+2

3.  If you subtract 10

      (x-5)+2-10

4.  And then add 3

    (x-5)+2-10+3

5.  you get 15

   (x-5)+2-10+3=15

what am I is the question we need to answer, we do this by solving for x

x-5+2-10+3=15

x-15+5=15

x-10=15

x=15+10

x=25
