Answer:
Let the original number be x
Successor is defined as the number which comes immediately after a particular number.
also, the successor of a whole number is the number obtained by adding 1 to that number.
Then, the successor of a number x is, x+1
As per the given condition :
we have;
Using distributive property on LHS (i.e, 
)
Then, we have
5x+5+x=83
Combine like terms;
6x+5=83
Subtract 5 from both the sides we get;
6x+5-5=83-5
Simplify:
6x=78
Divide both side by 6,
Simplify:
x =13
Therefore, the original number x is, 13
3/7 or 3:7 because you tossed the dice 7 times and got an even number 3 of those times.
<span>idk if this exactly correct but i tried
1 Find and add the lengths of all the polygon's sides
2.Multiply the lengths of equal sides by the number of equal sides.
3 Multiply a regular polygon's side length by the number of sides.
4 Alternatively, use the area and apothegm of the polygon.

You have to translate the statement into a mathematical expression...
Six times the number of cattle, if we let c be the number of cattle is:
6c
Less 87 means to subtract 87 so
6c-87
is 999 means
=999
so all together we have:
6c-87=999 now we need to isolate the variable by itself on one side of the equal sign....
6c-87=999 add 87 to both sides
6c=1086 divide both sides by 6
c=181
So there are 181 cattle.
