Answer:2n=60+5n

step by step: let n represent the number

so if some thing is twice a number it’s multiplied by 2 so that would give you 2n.

if a math sentence like this has is it means equal like 2 x 5 is 10. five times the number means 5n. more than means addition so you would add 60 to the 5n because it comes after the is.
