You have to formulate an equation for this problem.

Let x = the number asked in the problem

5x – 4 = 3x + 6

Solve the equation.

5x – 3x = 6 + 4

2x = 10

X = 5

Therefore, the number is 5.

[tex]Hey \\ there! [/tex]

[tex]5s - 4 = 3s + 6 \\ 5s - 3s = 4 + 6 \\ 5s - 3s = 2s \\ 4 + 6 = 10 \\ 2s = 10 \\ \frac{2s}{2} = \frac{10}{2} \\ \frac{2s}{2} = 1 (Cancel) \\ \frac{10}{2} = 5 (Keep) \\ Answer: s = 4 [/tex]
