I think of a number, multiply by 4, subtract 6 and then divide by 5. If the answer is 10, what is the original number?

(4x - 6) / 5 = 10

7 answers

(4x - 6) / 5 = 10
(4x - 6) / 5 = 10
4x - 6 = 50
4x - 6 + 6 = 50 + 6
4x = 56
4x/4 = 56/4
x = 18
(4x - 6) / 5 = 10
multiply by 5 both sides
4x - 6 = 50
add by 6 both sides
4x - 6 + 6 = 50 + 6
4x = 56
divide by 4 both sides
4x/4 = 56/4
sorry the answer is x = 14

x = 14
I got 14😊
i think of a number, multiply it by 4, subtract 6 and then divide by 5. if the answer is 10, whats the original number?

4x(6-5)/10
3 x 4 - (6/5) = 10.8 - x
2 x 4 - (6/5) = 6.8 - x
2.8 x 4 - (6/5) = 10

answer: (2.8)
it is 14(fourteen)
yeah it is 14
