What is the expression for "the difference between 5 times a number and twice that number"?
1 answer:
Hey there :)
Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'
5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r
The difference between them = 5r - 2r
* Your equation
5r - 2r
* Solving the equation
= 5r - 2r
= 3r
