Answer:

145

Step-by-step explanation:

We will let x equal our unknown number. So:

(x + 5)/2 = 75

Now we can solve for x

We can first multiply both sides of the equation by 2. This will get rid of the fraction on the left side:

x + 5 = 75 * 2 ----->

x + 5 = 150

Next, subtract 5 from both sides:

x + 5 - 5 = 150 - 5 ----->

x = 145
