Answer:
3/5
Explanation:
Let the number =x
The product of a number and 5 = 5x
Four more than the product of a number and 5 = 5x+4
We know that the word 'is' represents the equality sign.
Therefore, the equation is:
[tex]5x+4=7[/tex]Next, we solve for the number.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x=7-4 \\ 5x=3 \\ \frac{5x}{5}=\frac{3}{5} \\ x=\frac{3}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]The number is 3/5.
