The sum of a number and three more than twice that number is 27 . what is the smaller number

write a formula

27=x +(2x+3)

2x+x = 3x

27 = 3x+3

24=3x

x=8

double check 8+(8*2+3) = 27

Hence, the smaller number is:

                     8

Let the number be x.

This means that twice the number is represented as: 2x

Now three more than twice the number x is represented by: 2x+3

It is given that:

The sum of a number and three more than twice that number is 27 .

This means that:

Now on subtracting both side by 3 we get:

on dividing both side by 3 we get the value of x as:

       The smaller number is: 8

the naturalist literary movement was an extension of the realist literary movement, a movement that strove to portray life as it really was hope it

step-by-step explanation:

sas (side angle side)

aa(angle angle)

sss(side side side)

sas you have to find two sides with an angle in between

aa you find two angles because it will always add up to 180

sss find all sides
