A certain number is divided by five, seven is added and the result is quadrupled to get a number 15 higher than the original number. What was the first number?
65
(x/5+7)*4=x+15 =>4x/5+28=x+15 => x/5=13 => x=65
We can write the following equation: ((x/5) + 7) times 4 = x + 15 , Solving this equation, x = 65
