By transferring 30 to the right side, the equation becomes (x\/5) = -12, leading to x = -12 \u00d7 5 = -60.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>When a number is divided by 8, the result is \u20133. The number is _________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>When a number divided by 8 equals -3, the number is -24. This is calculated by solving x\/8 = -3, giving x = -3 \u00d7 8 = -24.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>9 is subtracted from the product of p and 4, the result is 11. The value of p is _________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>If 9 is subtracted from the product of p and 4, resulting in 11, then p equals 5. By moving -9 to the right side, the equation simplifies to 4p = 20, leading to p = 5.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>If (2\/5)x \u2013 2 = 5 \u2013 (3\/5)x, then x = .<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>If (2\/5)x \u2013 2 = 5 \u2013 (3\/5)x, then x = 7<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Given (2\/5)x \u2013 2 = 5 \u2013 (3\/5)x, solving for x gives x = 7. By rearranging terms, the equation simplifies to 5x = 35, resulting in x = 7.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>After 18 years, Swarnim will be 4 times as old as he is now. His present age is _________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Swarnim&#8217;s present age is 6 years, as after 18 years, he will be 4 times his current age. By solving x + 18 = 4x, it leads to x = 6, indicating Swarnim&#8217;s current age.<\/p>\n<p><b><strong>Question. <\/strong> Convert the statement adding 15 to 4 times x is 39 into an equation _________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Converting &#8220;Adding 15 to 4 times x is 39&#8221; into an equation gives 4x + 15 = 39.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>The denominator of a rational number is greater than the numerator by 10. If the numerator is increased by 1 and the denominator is decreased by 1, then the expression for the new denominator is _________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer &#8211; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>If the denominator of a rational number exceeds the numerator by 10, then increasing the numerator by 1 and decreasing the denominator by 1 results in the new denominator being x + 9.<\/p>\n<p><b> <strong>Question. <\/strong>The sum of two consecutive multiples of 10 is 210.
