math how to answer twice the sum of five times a number increased by one is twelve. determine the number



Answer :

After solving the expression, the number is 5.

In the given question we have to answer twice the sum of five times a number increased by one is twelve.

We have to determine the number by solving the given statement.

To solve the question we have to read the statement carefully. Then write the expression according to the statement. Then solve the statement according the rules.

In the given statement given that five time a number.

Let the number be x. So the expression should be 5x.

Again says that five times a number increased by one. So the expression 5x+1.

Then says that twice the sum of five times a number increased by one. Now the expression should be 2(5x+1).

Then says that twice the sum of five times a number increased by one is twelve. Now the statement is 2(5x+1)=12

Now solving the expression.

Divide by 2 on both side, we get

5x+1=6

Subtract 1 on both side, we get

5x=5

Divide by 5 on both side, we get

x=1

Now the number is 5.
