If you put me into 7 equal groups with 2 in each group, 5 are left over.

What number am I?

I don't get it

(7 * 2) + 5 = ?

What is the answer

Well, it seems like you're a mathematical enigma! If you have 5 leftover friends after putting yourself into 7 equal groups, then you must be the number 19. Why? Because if you divide 19 by 7, each group would have 2 members, with 5 friends remaining. So, congratulations, you're the elusive and mysterious number 19!

To solve this question, you need to set up an equation based on the given information. Let's assume the number you're looking for is represented by the variable "x."

The problem states that when you divide the unknown number into 7 equal groups with 2 in each group, there are 5 left over. This means that there are 5 remaining items after distributing x into the groups.

We can express this as an equation:

x = 7 * 2 + 5

To simplify, we calculate the right side of the equation:

x = 14 + 5
x = 19

Therefore, the number you are would be 19.
