Question

Translate and solve 5 less then three times a number is 16

Answer 1

Answer:

the number is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what you mean by "translate" but here is my solution to the problem.

first write the question as a equation: 3x - 5 = 16

then add 5 to both sides: 3x = 21

divide both sides by 3: x = 7

double check

3*7 - 5 = 16

the number is 7

Answer 2

Answer:

• The translation is 3x - 5 = 16 and the missing value is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation: 3x - 5 = 16

• => 3x - 5 = 16
• => 3x = 21
• => x = 7

Hence, the translation is 3x - 5 = 16 and the missing value is 7.
