Four times a number plus three is the same as five plus the number

the number is x

4x+3 = 5+x

subtract x from both sides

3x+3 = 5

subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 2

divide both sides by 3

x = 2/3

x =

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

An easy way to figure it out is to count it 1 by 1. So you have four, so count 1, 4 times. We don't know what the number would be so it would be x. We would have to multiply 4 and x so 4 * x = 4x. Then, we would add 3 because it says plus 3. We would then put an equals sign. Then, you would say 5 + x because it says five plus the number, the number we don't know is x. Below is the work.

Step 1: Simplify.

4x + 3 = 5 + x

Step 2: Simplify.

4x − x = 5 − 3

Step 3: Simplify.

3x = 2

Step 4: Divide denominators by 3.

Step 5: Simplify.

x =
