when a number, n, is increased by two and then the result is divided by five the quotient is equal to 14. write an equation and solve it to find the value of n.

NEED STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION


Answer :

Step-by-step explanation:

We have (n + 2)/5 = 14.

=> (n + 2) = 14 * 5 = 70 (multiply 5 on both sides)

=> n = 70 - 2 = 68. (subtract 2 on both sides)

Hence the number n is 68.
