igomit [66]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: The number is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

5-x = 1+3x

or, 5 = 1+3x+x

or, 5 = 1+4x

or, 5-1 = 4x

or, 4x = 4

or, x = 4/4

so, x = 1

10 x 8 = 8 x [] unknown factor
Akimi4 [234]

Hey there!

10 * 8 = 8 * e

10 * 8 = 80

80 = 8 * e

8 * e = 80

8e = 80

DIVIDE 8 to BOTH SIDES

8e/8 = 80/8

CANCEL out: 8/8 because that gives you 1

KEEP: 80/8 because that gives the value of x

x = 80/8

80/8 = x

10 = x

x = 10

Therefore your answer is: 10

Because, 10 * 8 = 8 * 10

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
