Answer: 3.6667

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be p,

Generate an equation from the question

6 x p -5= 17 = 6p - 5 = 17

Make p subject of equation

6p= 17 + 5

6p = 22

Divide both sides by 6

p = 22/6

p= 3.66667

Check:

Slot the value of p into the equation

6 (3.66667) - 5= 17

22 - 5 = 17
