    Not really because the first obe would be 8x-20 and the second one would be x+15. Hint: The "more than" and "less than" tells that number to be last.

    To answer this, we'll first build an equation and solve it,

    x=the number

    8x-20=x+15

    -x - x

    =7x-20=15

    +20 + 20

    =7x=35

    :7 : 7

    =x=5

    your answer is 5

    check,

    8*5-20=20

    5+15=20

    answer=5
