Five more than the quotient of a number and 3 equals 2.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\ or\ n:3+5=2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\\\\\dfrac{n}{3}-\text{the quotient of a number}\ n\ \text{ and 3}\\\\...+5-\text{five more than}$

If you want a solution:

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2$ <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5-5=2-5$

$\dfrac{n}{3}=-3$ <em>multiply both sides by 3</em>

$3\!\!\!\!\diagup\cdot\dfrac{n}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup}=(3)(-3)\\\\n=-9$
