In order to find the number of stamps Jaylan has, we can solve the equation:
5x - 10 = 275
Adding 10 to both sides of the equation:
5x = 285
Dividing both sides by 5:
x = 57
Therefore, Jaylan has 57 stamps.
If Jaylan takes the number of stamps he has and multiplies it by 5 and then subtracts 10, he gets 275. How many stamps does he have?(1 point)
