Answer: 20/3
So when solving this equation first distribute our 3,we will now have 3x-15=5.
Next we will Add 15 to both sides of our equation. Now we have 3x=20.Then divide our terms,and you will have 3x/3 = 20/3
<u>This will leave you with 1x=20/3. </u>
So the X is 20/3.
Hope that helped!
It already is a decimal unless you mean a repeating decimal, it would be .26 with a line over the number.
Given :difference between 2 whole number = 66ratio of the 2 whole number =2:5Let:1 whole number be 2x2 whole number be 5xA/Q
difference between 2 whole number = 66
Let's turn it into algebraic equation:
5x - 2x = 663x= 66x =66 /3x =22
Now Let's put value of x to find two whole numbers
Finaly :1 whole number = 2x1 whole number = 2×221 whole number =44
2 whole number = 5x2 whole number = 5×222 whole number = 110
