Question

which equation represents this sentence? five more than three times the number is one-third more than the sum of the number and itself. 5(3n)=1/3n n 3n 5=1/3(n n) 3n 5=(n n) 1/3 5(3n)=1/3 n

Answer 1

Answer:

For the given sentence "five more than three times the number is one-third more than the sum of the number and itself" the equation representation is $5+3n =\frac{1}{3}+(n+n)$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n,

then three times the number = 3n

then five more than three times the number = 5+3n

also, the sum of the number and itself = n + n

Given : five more than three times the number is one-third more than the sum of the number and itself.      

According to question,

$5+3n =\frac{1}{3}+(n+n)$

Thus, for the given sentence "five more than three times the number is one-third more than the sum of the number and itself" the equation representation is $5+3n =\frac{1}{3}+(n+n)$.
