Three times a certain number is added to 5 and the result is 20? <br> What's the number?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to convert the given scenario in mathematical or algebraic expression.

Let x be the number

Then according to given statement, the equation will be:

"Three times a certain number"

$3x$

"is added to 5"

$3x+5$

"the result is 20"

$3x+5 = 20$

Using Subtraction property of Equality

$3x+5-5 = 20-5\\3x = 15$

Using division property of equality

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{15}{3}\\x = 5$

Hence,

The number is 5
