To the question

Let the number be x

And being 5 times of the number is 5x

And been increased by 4

(5x+4)=19

5x+4=19

Substrate 4 from both sides

5x=15

Divide both sides by 5

X=3

Answer:

The number is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we want to make an equation, 5 times n (a number) plus 4 = 19 (by using 19 the least possible awnser we know that it will be the least possible number that satisfied the requirements, if it didn't work we could have gone up one number until we found something that worked)

5n +4 =19 subtract 4 from both sides so that the 5n is alone

5n = 15 now divide by 5 so that the n is all alone

n=3

it takes 21 minutes for 5 people to paint 7 walls. how many minutes does it take 3 people to paint 10 walls

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

21/7=3mins per wall with 5 people.
Because we assume that all of the people paint at the same rate, 3 X 5=15 mins for one person working alone.
15/3=5 mins per wall with 3 people X 10 people= 50 mins for 3 people to paint 10 walls.

The answer is 50 mins.

Burka [1]

we must do the following:

select the major, the minor and the half and add, like this:

$9+0+5+1=15$

therefore:

$7+6+2=15$

also:

$\begin{gathered} 8+4+3=15 \\ \end{gathered}$

the groups are:

(9,0,1,5); (7,6,2); (8,4,3)
