The number is 14

Here's the solution:

Let the number be x

According to the question,

27+7x=125

//Subtract 27 from both the sides

7x=125-27

7x=98

//divide both the sides by 7

x=98/7

x=14

First write the equation: 27+7X=125
Combine like terms: 27+7X-27=125-27
7X=98.
Get the unknown alone: 7X/7=98/7
X=14.
:) hope this helps
