Hi there!

Let's start by laying out an equation and replacing "a number" with the letter "X" just to make everything clearer :

6 subtracted from 5 times X = 9

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Now all you have to do left is solve the equation by isolating "X" :

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Add 6 on each side of the equation

5 × X = 9

Divide each side of the equation by 5

X = 1.8

Your answer is : 6 subtracted from 5 times 1.8 is equal to 9.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
