Question

When a number is added to n plus StartFraction 1 Over 5 EndFraction n equals 24. Of itself, the result is 24. The equation that models this problem is n + n plus StartFraction 1 Over 5 EndFraction n equals 24.N = 24. What is the value n? n = 18 n = 20 n = 21n equals 23 and StartFraction Over 5 EndFraction 5 n = 23n equals 23 and StartFraction Over 5 EndFraction 5

Answer 1

B on edg, n=20

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: n = 20

Explanation:

Given that the problem goes thus:

When a number, n is added to 1/5 n of itself, the outcome obtained is 24.

Mathematically,

n + 1/5 of n = 24

n + (1/5n) = 24

1n + 1/5n = 24

(5n + 1n) / 5 = 24

6n / 5 = 24

6n = 24 × 5

6n = 120

n = 120 / 6

n = 20
