Answer:
The Zabato's number is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number = x
Given that:
Three times the sum of the number and ten is the same as eight times the number.
According to the given condition:
3x + 10 = 8x
Simplifying by transferring terms with x on left side and others on right side
3x - 8x = -10 (Sign of transferred terms is changed)
-5x = -10
Dividing both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = -10/-5
x = 2
So the Zabato's number is 2.
Proof:
3x + 10 = 8x
Putting value of x
3(2) + 10 = 8 (2)
6 +10 = 16
16 = 16
Hence proved.
I hope it will help you.
