Question

6.7 more than 5 times a number is 20

Answer 1

Subtract 6.7 from 20. This is 13.3. Divide 13.3/5 is 2.66. That is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

the number is 2.66

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.7+5x=20$

Step 1. Subtract 6.7 from both sides

$5x=20-6.7$

$5x=13.3$

Step 2. Isolate the variable

$\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{13.3}{5}$

$x=2.66$

The number is 2.66
