6

Step-by-step explanation:

Number = x

5x + 18 = 48

5x = 30

x = 6

Jakob · Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Do 5x + 18 = 48

x being the number we do not know about. When you see "times" or "of", you simply multiply

Subtract 18 from both sides to isolate x, to get 5x = 30

Divide by 5 from both sides to get your x value

x = 6
