Two times a certain number added to 40 gives the same result as three times the same number subtracted from 75. What is the number?

(A) 7
(B) 11
(C) 16
(D) 25



We need to find the value of that number which if multiplied twice and 40 is added then the value is equal to 3 times minus 75

We take the number as X

Then this equation will be looks like below:

⇒ 2x + 40 = 75 - 3x

⇒2x + 3x = 75 - 40

⇒ 5x = 35

⇒ x = `35/5`

⇒ x = 7

Therefor, The Number (x) = 7
