The sum of 5 times a number and 8 is equal to 9

Mathematics

Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The unknown number is \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the unknown number x.

The sum of 5 TIMES a number (x) & 8 is 9.

Let's write it mathematically.

5x + 8 =9

We are trying to find the unknown number, so let's remove all the numbers from the left side to find x. Minus 8.

5x=1

5x is basically 5 times x, so to find x, we need to divide and from there we can remove 5.

x= \frac{1}{5}
