    Let the unknown number be y.

    We can list the equation out by the clues given.

    5y + 12 = 52

    Then solve this as simple algebra!

    Shift + 12 to the other side and be - 12

    5y = 52-12

    5y = 40

    Shift x5 to the other side and be : 5

    y = 40 / 5

    y = 8

    Therfore the unknown number is 8.
