The number is 3. The math is 5 x 3 = 15 15 - 3 = 12
The answer is 3 because you have to add 3 on both sides. Then you will get 5x =15 then to get X by itself you would have to divide by 5 on Both sides 5x/5 cancels its self out then your left with x 15/5=3 so you will get X=3 therefor the number is 3

5x-3=12
+3 +3
5x=15
