Question

Tomàs is thinking of a number. Thirteen fewer than three times his number is 305. Of what number is Tomás thinking?

Answer 1

Answer:

106

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Thirteen fewer than three times his thinking number is 305.

Question asked:

What number is Tomás thinking ?

Solution:

Let Toma's thinking number be $x$

As 13 fewer than 3 times his thinking number is 305.

The equation will be:

$(3 times of x) - 13 = 305$

$3x - 13 = 305$

Adding both side by 13

$3x = 318$

Dividing both side by 3

$x = 106$

Thus,  Tomàs was thinking of a number is 106
