Fives times a number and the difference of 6

The equation that has resulted from this is 5x - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

So far, we know that the givens are:

fives times a number and the difference of 6

Then, we can conclude that the term "a number" means an unknown term, so all we have to do is put a variable in its place. It can be k, s, h, z, x, etc. Next, just find the difference of 6. So, from what we know, this is what our new equation looks like:

5 times ( a number) - the difference of 6

In math form:

5 (x) - 6

Simplify:

5x - 6

Hence the answer!
