Twenty less than 8 times a number is the same as 15 more than the number.

Nezavi [6.7K]

X-number
8x-20=15+x (subtract x)
7x-20=15 (then add 20)
7x=35 (then divide by 7)

I think you've got it from now, if not, just do 35 divided by 7. But go over the steps, so that you know how to do these types of questions.
