Answer 2

Given :

when three times a certain number is subtracted from 5 the result is more than 9 find the number.

Solution :

Let us assume :

The number be x

Data :

A number is 3 times = 3x

Subtracted from 5

The result = 9

Henceforth, the equation we got is :

• 3x - 5 = 9

Transposing 9 to the other side

• 3x = 14

• x = 14/3

Hence, the value of x is 14/3 respectively
