    1/3x + 5 = 9

    x = 12

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If x is the number ...

    1/3x + 5 = 9

    1/3x + 5 - 5 = 9 - 5

    1/3x = 4

    (3/1) 1/3x = 4 (3/1)

    x = 12

    1/3n + 5 = 9. N equals twelve. This is because you subtract five from both sides of the equation to get one third n equals four. Then multiply both sides by three to get n equals four.
