3x-12=24 should be written first as an equation . The next step is to simplify, adding 12 to each side to arrive at 3x=36. Last but not least, take 3 off of each side to get x=12.
What number is produced when 5 is subtracted from 3?
16
Let the number be three times a number (3x), which equals 3x 5 when subtracted from 3x (5=16), 3x (16+5), and 3x (21+3), which equals 7. Q. If a number is multiplied by 3 and 5 is subtracted, the** result** is 16. The solution states that when we take 4 out of three times a number, we get 11.

The unknown number is 12, found by setting up the equation 3 x − 12 = 24 , solving for x , and verifying the result. The solution process involves basic algebraic manipulation: adding 12 to both sides, then dividing by 3. This confirms that the solution is accurate and meets the problem's conditions.
